Does the driver get to choose his or her route and stop times? Or does it distract/company do that?

It depends on the district's policy and practices what routes are what.

Why why if it’s unethical to brake check, jump a curb, goose the gas, or some other way of making someone fall down do bus drivers do it? Also are Muslim drivers safe?

They do it for the same reason a parent spanks their child. Often its a knee jerk reaction (and not a very mature one at that) in an effort to get the child to behave. It's done out of frustration and lack of options when the child hasn't faced consequences. Personally there is no reason to put safety at risk over a child standing up. As for your second question. Yes they're safe as long as they have had the same training that everyone else has had to get and obtain a drivers license.

She also instead of immediately taking me to school she made me go in the gas station with her for like ten minutes. She never said sorry and acted like it was all my fault. My driver always announces stops and does not care if we sleep. She is Unreasonable

Well she couldn't leave you unsupervised. If it was me I'd have offered to buy you a drink (soda or water) and a snack before taking you home and saw to it that you had the opportunity to use the bathroom.
