You should never underestimate a motivated student couple's ability to conceal their actions in the dark. Hormones can do strange things to your "perfect little angels"!

Billfred's suggestions of spreading adult chaperones around the bus and enforcing same gender seating arrangements during nighttime hours are good ones.

48 does the straight shot from Ohio with the driver change in Tennessee. We leave around midnight (!!!) Tuesday night and get into Atlanta around 1-2 PM Wednesday afternoon. We do bring a few food items on the bus with us, but we always make stops for food and bathroom breaks - it's a good idea to get off the bus and stretch your legs (especially if you're 6' 3"). Plus it's fun to watch and laugh as the kids pile off the bus like a bunch of zombies at 3 AM!

Most entertain themselves with music, card games, etc., but we also play movies to help the time go by. We typically permit up to PG-13.
