Fast news can be good news, and tweets from the principal that your son or daughter is okay, is really good news. Parents of the 26 Bedford Park Public school kids on that New York excursion have expressed their appreciation to principal Kevin Battaglia for sending word back so quickly that everybody aboard their bus was okay. Battaglia and two teachers have the 26 in their care on a sightseeing tour of New York. The Guelph University Gryphons bus was rear-ended in the Lincoln Tunnel about 9.30 EDT., the same hour in both cities. After a quick check, Mr. Battaglia tweeted that there had been “a little excitement” on the bus. He explained the situation and kept the updates going. Parent Henda Bilhan tweeted her thanks. And Sandra Kalnins said: “Thank you Mr. B for keeping us informed and to both you and Mr. Norris for keeping the kids safe.”
