Pros

Pleasant place to work. Staff are friendly and loyal to one another at the school level. Community support is strong

Cons

Nepotism, miscommunication at central office. treat employees unprofessionally at times. School board has several members that don't have a clue about education. Even some of the well meaning ones are not appropriate to serve on this body.

Pros

Buses are less than 20 years old.

Cons

The pays is not competitive. We're losing drivers faster than we're getting them. Everyone is fake nice to your face, but behind your back you're disposable. The pay goes up so slowly that new drivers make more than drivers who have been doing the job for 5 years. You're expected to schedule appointments in the middle of the day when you should be working a second job because this one doesn't pay enough. The mechanics are over-worked and it shows when dealing with them.
