I wouldn't do that in a jacked up 4x4 alone, much less with someone else's kids. A lot of that flooding is legit around here. On Friday morning I saw several cars that had been swept into ditches. Water coming across the road like rapids in some places. Was pretty crazy.

It wasn't that deep. Just a bad angle. And if the parents were that worried, why did they leave their kids at school? Parents need to take responsibility for the safety of their kids and stop blaming govt schools. They aren't baby sitters.

They were in a bus not a car - pussification of America.

Man, some of this stuff popped up fast. Thursday night I went in the gym and it wasn't raining. Less than an hour later I had to wade through water almost up to my knees to get to my car. Thankfully I had parked in a high part of the lot. Took me nearly an hour to get home and I live about 10 miles away. Every road was flooded. Then Friday I took roads to work that were still open. On the way home, creeks started rising even more shutting off routes home. For the people North of Houston, this makes last month's flooding look tiny. Obviously last month's was much worse for Houston itself.
And to say it isn't deep isn't taking into consideration that it may be deep a quarter mile up.

Scary, but the alternative was to leave them stranded.

This exactly. This is a product of our modern always offended, ultra PC, pussified world.

Kind of true. Some students and faculty were stranded, but the teachers and admin stayed with the students in the school. They had power, water, and food. As a parent, I would prefer to know my kids are in a safe dry place and not having the lives at risk.

That really did't look that bad. Geez. And they were in a bus.
Parents would be bitching if they were stranded at school too.

I wouldn't make a judgement based on that video, the water could have been 6" deep making rapids like that hitting the right way and the bus could handle nearly 18" without breaking a sweat. If I were familiar with the area and knew the water was a foot deep or better for sure, I would be pissed off.
