Assignment of Bus Routes. Drivers having achieved permanency to a fixed number of hours shall not lose hours on the basis of route assignments. Each driver will maintain the same schedule day by day. This section shall not be construed as superseding layoff procedures due to lack of funds or lack of work.
Assignment of Bus Routes. Bus driver routes will be assigned annually based upon route efficiency as determined by the Superintendent. Route efficiency includes consideration of the geographic location of the route and the driver’s residence. In making route assignments, seniority will be considered to the extent possible given the unique geographic and scheduling needs of the District. Drivers are expected to house the assigned bus at his/her residence, unless or until the District determines to utilize a bus corral or garage. In the absence of a bus corral or garage, drivers are expected to drive the bus directly to residences after routes have been run and may not utilize buses for personal use of any kind. Buses must be housed at the residence of the driver and may not be parked elsewhere, unless otherwise authorized by the Superintendent. Drivers will be paid for driving to and from his/her residence to and from work, as established by the District. For purposes of this section, a full time bus driver is one who drives twenty (20) or more hours per week. The most senior drivers will be assigned to the full time positions. During the course of any year, should a full time driving position drop below twenty (20) hours per week, the Board may realign hours to reach the 20 hours or simply “deem” the assigned position as full time for purposes of benefit eligibility.
Assignment of Bus Routes. Assignment of bus routes shall be based on seniority and the ability of the employee to perform the necessary requirements for the assignment.
Assignment of Bus Routes a) As of September 1st of each new year, all school bus drivers shall retain their previous year’s bus route. All bus drivers will be entitled to the same health insurance benefit level as in the previous school year until the re-bidding process takes place. If there is a new bus driver, then he/she shall bid on the remaining routes left over by seniority. If the seniority is the same, the tie shall be broken by the alphabetical listing of the employee by last name. In the event that a bus driver retires or terminates service at the end of a school year, then the most senior driver who will be returning the following school year shall be given the opportunity to select the run formerly held by the person retiring or terminated. This selection must be completed within 48 hours following notification from the district to the driver. In the event that more than one bus driver retires or terminates service from the district at the end of the school year, then the selection by senior returning drivers shall be limited to the same number. Thereafter, complete re-bidding will take place by in the first full week of October of each school year as per the Collective Bargaining Agreement. The routes shall be bid upon by seniority, and only denied for just cause.

Assignment of Bus Routes. A. If it becomes necessary to assign one or more vehicle operators to work a regular work week other than five consecutive days, Monday through Friday, five hours a day, the Transportation Supervisor will discuss the matter with the affected employee(s) at least one week prior to making the change, to get the employee=s input. It is agreed and understood that Regular routes during the school year will be assigned between all Vehicle Operator 3 (180 days and 238 day drivers). Prior to the end of the school year the summer routes will be assigned between the 238 day drivers. If the affected employee(s) do not want to make change, the Transportation Supervisor will determine if another vehicle operator would be willing to switch schedules voluntarily. If no volunteer is available, however, then the Transportation Supervisor will assign the vehicle operator with the least classification seniority to work the changed scheduled and the other vehicle operator to work the schedule and drive the route of the least senior vehicle operator.
