The Carey School District needs bus drivers. The Courier reports Superintendent Mike Wank told school board members the situation could force them to make changes in the school schedule. Wank says the district may have to stagger starting times for the elementary and junior/senior high school students. They may also have to run separate bus routes with fewer buses.

Wank says several bus drivers are approaching retirement. He added part of the difficulty in filling the positions is finding qualified people who can work from 6:30 a.m. to 8:45 a.m. and from 2:30 p.m. to 4 p.m. each day.

The district plans to advertise for bus drivers. If you’re interested, you should get in touch with bus driver supervisor Lenny Orians.
