Why would anyone drop off a seven year old?\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Earlier this week a representative of the Alpine School District, which is just outside of Salt Lake City, said that the bus driver had been put on administrative leave.&nbsp; Now, however, it has been revealed that the driver no longer works for the district, though whether he resigned or he was fired has not been revealed.<\/p>\n<p>Last Friday Kya decided to join a friend on the school bus so that the two could play together after school.&nbsp; When the driver asked her for her permission slip and Kya did not have one, the driver pulled over and forced the seven-year-old girl out the door in an unknown neighborhood.&nbsp; \u201cThat is absolutely unacceptable, obviously,\u201d notes representative Rhonda Bromley.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>A bus driver in Utah has lost his job after kicking a seven-year-old girl off a school bus in an unfamiliar neighborhood because she did
