One thought on “Area schools change schedules, offer incentives amid bus driver shortage

  1. So bus drivers get to do 50% more driving (3 routes instead of 2), but get only 25% more pay ($25 for extra route). Sounds like a deal for the districts. Of course, that’s Carmel-Clay. HSE bumped the routes and is still paying < $100.

    Correct me if I'm wrong, but bus drivers have to get up early, keep their day open for the job, and get paid for a job that generally doesn't include benefits like health insurance or PTO. You then add onto that all the grief being given to our schools and their staff and is anyone really surprised that the districts can't find bus drivers. Where in Carmel-Clay or HSE can a person live that makes roughly $2200 a month (before taxes)? The system is broken.
