Jefferson County Public Schools students who ride the bus won't find music in their ears after the school board tabled a decision on whether to allow a national bus radio company to place radios with advertising on board.
Board Chairman Joe Hardesty pulled the item off the agenda moments after the meeting began tonight. He said he doesn't expect the issue to be brought up again in the forseeable future.
The three-year agreement had called for Massachusetts-based Bus Radio Inc. to install and maintain custom-designed radios and provide age-appropriate music, commercials and public-service announcements to Jefferson County's 60,000 bused students -- at no cost to the district.
