No students were injured when one school bus rear-ended the other on Alcoa Highway near the Neyland Drive exit.
The accident was reported around 9:15 am, in the northbound lanes.
The students were from Carpenters Elementary School in Blount County. Principal Fred Goins says the kids were on their way to see the Nutcracker ballet at the Civic Auditorium. Goins says one bus stopped suddenly, and the bus traveling behind it bumped into the back. There are other buses on the way to pick those students up, and they will be taken back to the school.
There's no official word on whether any other vehicles were involved in the accident.
