The Mercer County school superintendent says none of the elementary school students on a school bus that was hit by another vehicle Tuesday afternoon were seriously hurt.
Superintendent Deborah Akers says 11 students from Melrose Elementary were examined at the hospital as a precaution.
Akers says the students were transported by ambulance or their parents to the hospital Tuesday afternoon. An SUV crossed the center line of Old Pisgah Road and struck the bus head on.
There were 22 total students on the bus at the time of the accident
