Ep. 14: School Bus Driver Shortage

The school bus driver shortage is a major challenge for school districts across the nation. How do you attract the right people to the position? How can you offer enough hours to make it worth an employee’s time? Are your rates and benefits competitive? Do you offer paid training? Once you hire a bus driver, how do you retain them? To finish out this episode, we have a portion of a webinar on the school bus driver shortage. In this segment, you will hear from David Oglesby, Assistant Transportation Supervisor, Kettering City Schools & OAPT Second Vice President discussing the results of a comprehensive survey conducted by OAPT of nearly 300 school districts from around the state on the school bus driver shortage. You’ll also hear the webinar moderator, OASBO’s COO Kim Laugherty. Take a listen!
