Butler County Transportation Department offering Incentives for Future School Bus Drivers
By Teresa Lawson Mar 12, 2025 Orignal Article Link
Butler County Board of Education is short of school bus drivers, leaving current drivers stretched to the limit to service each child on their bus route. Some drivers drive double routes and have trouble taking time off because of the lack of substitute drivers.
LBW is offering assistance to school districts to help fill these vacancies. LBW offers future drivers access to the training that they need at a 99% graduation rate.
The Entry Level Driver Training is an online course within the Alabama Community College System which each bus driver must complete. LBW provides hopeful school bus drivers with the ELDT training.
All at little to no cost to the applicant.
