School Bus Drivers

General Responsibilities

Reporting directly to the Director of Specialized Transportation, the School Bus Driver will transport students with disabilities on "to and from school" routes.

Regular School Bus Drivers will work 20-25 hours per week and are eligible for our standard package of benefits; retirement, medical, dental, and vision insurance offered at affordable premiums, an employee assistance program, and much more! Our fleet contains smaller buses which means smaller passenger counts. We are looking for drivers for routes in Cowlitz County.

Salary:

The full 2024-25 hourly range for School Bus Drivers will be $28.18 - $32.12. Offers are made at the entry level of the range. Candidates that must complete full driver training will receive a substitute driver pay to start.

We are also recruiting for Substitute Drivers. The full 2024-25 hourly range for Substitute School Bus Drivers will be $26.10 - $26.67. Offers are made at the entry level of the range.
