But in Pennsylvania, a beloved bus driver was fired for asking the students on her bus to speak English.
"I do care. I care about a lot," Diane Crawford said in a tearful interview. "I didn't mean to be racially insensitive or anything like that."
Crawford said a Spanish-speaking student with a history of causing problems was the reason she posted the sign. "I didn't know if he was bullying somebody, telling them to do something they shouldn't do," Crawford said. "How do you keep control of your bus if you have no control?"
Despite that, her contract with the school bus company was terminated.
Here's more:
"I didn't mean to be racially insensitive or anything like that," she said. "Maybe I should have worded it (differently). Maybe it should have said, 'No bullying in any language,' but I didn't mean it to be anything but to correct him."Crawford paid for her bus and the route, which set her back $30,000.
At the time, Rohrer Bus said they had suspended Crawford as a 'precautionary measure' and that an investigation was ongoing.
Crawford claimed she had never been suspended, and there was never an investigation.
"I think I just instantly went into shock," the former bus driver said.
Crawford claimed she never got to explain that the sign was put up to encourage safe and respectful behavior and that it was directed at a bilingual student who allegedly had a history of riling up other students in Spanish.
Assistant Attorney General Harmeet Dhillon has caught wind of Crawford's case, calling it "deeply concerning."
Dhillon also called for a civil rights investigation into the matter.
