Salary Range:$22.00 To $25.00 Hourly
Drivers are the most important employees in our company. Without them, we would not have a service to provide. They are more than "just a driver"; they transport our future generations to and from school with a positive attitude, a cheerful greeting, and respect - all while maintaining a safe and timely bus ride. Each driver is a part of the family we've created and view each day as another opportunity to serve the community.
Specific driver responsibilities include the following:

• Maintain the "People Standard" of the company which includes but is not limited to maintaining a positive attitude, great work ethic, self-motivated, team player, follow through on commitments, and be reliable.
• Perform all driving duties with the utmost safety and use of defensive driving techniques.
• Communicate with students about how to unload and load the school bus, where the bus stop is located, and safety at bus stops safely and properly.
• Maintain close communications with dispatch on route movements and times and report any variances, in particular emergency situations or hazards.
• Confidentiality is a serious matter which includes child and family privacy. Drivers must understand the importance of respecting privacy for students and their families.
• Interior cleanliness of the bus is a driver's responsibility. A regular standard is the bus swept and/or dust mopped daily, and garbage dumped after each a.m. route.
• Fueling the vehicle is required at locations using authorized card locks or bulk fuel systems.
• Daily attendance for assigned daily duties is required.
• Driver is responsible to be knowledgeable of the rules and regulations to maintain qualified school bus driver's license in Pennsylvania. The driver is responsible for reporting to the Location Manager any traffic citation or violations, or criminal convictions, that would be adverse in maintaining a valid school bus driving license.
• Maintain Pupil Management on their bus routes. Remind the students of bus rules and train them on proper behavior on a school bus.
