Additionally, drivers will not receive credit for any month in which they took one or more days of leave without pay. A driver who resigns, transfers to another job within the school system or retires before the end of the year will not be eligible to receive a retention bonus for that year. These drivers also must complete the school year as a driver. We are hopeful that this move to reward bus drivers who stay with us will reduce our attrition rate and help to ensure that we have enough bus drivers to return to the three-tiered schedule. Drivers are guaranteed six hours of work each day that schools are open.
