What's Your Craziest Back-To-School Story, Carrollwood?

Carrollwood kids weren't welcomed back to school by a bus that careened out of control like youngsters in Boca Raton. Even so, we're willing to bet there are some wacky stories out there. We'd like to hear them!

This story was reported by Associate Regional Editor Sherri Lonon.

Reports of moldy lockers, messed up schedules, long drop off lines, increased traffic and buses running late have been lodged throughout the Tampa Bay area as students wrapped up their first week of classes.

There have even been a few crazy stories out of Florida. One shining, and rather frightening, example is the runaway bus in Boca Raton whose driver had to figure out how to stop without brakes. (Watch the video to find out more about that one!)
