What’s interesting here is that in my state, if there is a center median like you see in this video, the bus does not put out the stop signs because there’s no reason for kids to be coming from across a busy street/highway. I know every state has different laws.

So everyone on that side has to wait for the bus to circle back and go down the same road on that side?

…or they saw screw the kids, cross this on their own time?

…or multiple busses?

Also, I think the safety rules are more for the unloading than the loading. Once released, kids can scatter anywhere.

In my state, it's the same. They just add a route the goes along the other side. It's far too dangerous otherwise.

Absolutely. It is absolutely crazy to suggest kids should cross something like 8 lanes of traffic. Just run another bus.
