Fifty-three students and adults were on board the buses.
Georgia State Patrol officials said the first bus slowed as the driver stopped to unload a child when the second bus rammed into it.
Most of the students suffered bumps and bruises, while some had concussions, a chipped tooth and sore legs.
The driver who caused the crash, who may be cited for following too closely, she suffered a broken sternum, a family member said.
