A bus that will carry 72 passengers weighs about 13,157 KG or 28,999 LB. This is an approximation. Each model has a different curb weight.
The weight listed on the data sticker on any vehicle is the Gross Vehicle Weight Rating--the maximum rated weight. This includes driver, passengers, fluids, cargo and tongue weight of a trailer--but not the axle weight of the trailer. A standard school bus will have around a 25,500# GVWR. The Curb Weight (full fluids, no driver, passengers or cargo) will be around 15,000#, give or take. The Curb Weight is not listed on the data sticker.

As many as the bus was designed to carry. There are buses of up to a 72 passenger capacity.
On the average, a 38', 84 passenger school bus weighs in between 11 & 14 Tons (22,000 to 28,000 pounds) curb weight without passengers. When you add 84 passengers, say high school students, that can add up to 14,700 additional pounds in weight, bringing the total up to about 42,700 pounds. Contrary to popular belief these behemoths (most have air brakes) cannot stop on a dime - truth is, at 55 mph, it takes about 300 feet to safely stop without locking up the wheels and making the bus skid. The average school bus weighs about 7 ton (14000) lbs if gross weight was over 26000 lbs the driver would need a cdl not a bus drivers endorsement and most have air over hydraulic brakes =========================It weighs more then a rhino I am a Mechanic with a 30 school bus fleet. My Heaviest by GROSS vehicle weight is a 2007 BlueBird All American 84 passenger and it saddles in at 37600 GVW. Our average is a 2007 International CE 72 passenger which saddles in 29800 GVW. And furthermore, even though it DOES say "84 passenger" realistically you are NOT going to get 84 High School/Adults in there. it will be more like 56. The passenger guidelines are based on 15" width per passenger. Which is common for Elementary Kids.
We'd need to know the actual make and model of the bus to answer this... International didn't manufacture the complete bus - they simply provided the chassis, and a company such as Blue Bird or others manufactured the bus body and spec'd that out.
A commuter bus can weigh anywhere from 25,000 to 40,000 pounds depending on its size. A 72-passenger Thomas built Freightliner school bus weighs around 18,000 pounds.
I have a'72 Early Bay Dormobile and original colour details are on a sticker on the bulkhead behind the passenger seat back (you have to lift the fold-down cooker on Dormobiles!
