Drivers

All of our bus drivers have Class B Commercial Driver's Licenses and meet the minimum qualifications required to operate a school bus in the State of Colorado. These requirements include P, S, and 2 license endorsements, First Aid Certificates, DOT physical requirements, and Colorado Department of Education required annual tests and training.

Small vehicle drivers have First Aid/CPR certification and have passed a driving test and completed CDE-approved testing.

Training is provided by our certified driver trainers and you will be paid for the time you spend in training.
