Bus Drivers a. Bus drivers will work the calendar year required for their assigned routes with the base pay calculated using one hundred eighty-two (182) days which includes Thanksgiving Day and Christmas Day. Bus drivers may, upon the recommendation of the Transportation Coordinator and approval of the Board of Education, also be paid for one (1) in-service day. Any driver working more than one hundred eighty (180) days will be paid at his/her regular hourly rate for the actual hours worked those days. During the school year, bus drivers shall receive average paychecks based upon the total number of hours they are scheduled to work during the school year, divided by the number of paychecks in that school year. Adjustments will be made in each pay period if necessary. This procedure is not, however, to be interpreted as meaning that said bus drivers are salaried. These adjustments will reflect any addition or deletion to normal hours in the prior weeks. Bus Drivers will be paid their contracted hourly rate for any duties performed between September 1 and June 30. For duties performed between July 1 and August 31, drivers will be paid their summer hourly rate. Summer routes will be chosen based on seniority. b.
