Some buses with air-conditioning, others without

If you are riding an Oconee school bus in the heat of 2015, you are not guaranteed a bus with air-conditioning.  Among the state-issued buses to the Oconee public schools that have air-conditioning are seven special needs buses and eight regular education buses.  All activity buses—the white buses—purchased by the district come with air-conditioning.  Steve Hanvey, assistant superintendent for education, says, “It is our understanding that any new buses we receive from the state will be air-conditioned.  However, we have no idea how many buses we will get from the state or when we will get them.”
