Our Transportation Department is hosting a bus driver training course this summer! The course will run from 8 a.m. to 2 p.m. Monday through Friday beginning July 10. The training includes instruction, pre-trip inspection, behind-the-wheel training, ride-alongs, a final written exam and a road test. Trainees are required to have their CDL-P and Medical Certificate prior to beginning class.
Completing the training means you will meet the requirements to be a bus driver. Participants who successfully complete the training, pass all required tests and work for Meridian School District for 120 days will be reimbursed for costs associated with the CDL and paid for the training. If you are interested and want to learn more, contact Transportation at 360-318-2171 by Friday, June 30.
