Pros

I have met and dealt with many great people I like that the schedules are flexible since I am also a college student I also like that they pay for everything needed to obtain a cdl and school bus permit, plus they pay you while training

Cons

They are a little lacking in the benefits department, but it is a part-time job The pay could also be better since the districts around us pay more on average
