The bus used for transportation on an extra runs will be the same bus the bus driver normally drives for daily transportation.
3. Upon satisfying the ninety (90) day probation period, bus drivers will be afforded the opportunity to apply for extra run beyond his/her normal daily bus run.
4. Request and Confirmation of run/trips outside the regularly scheduled runs In an effort to keep the lines of communication open, the Transportation Supervisor and/or his/her designee and the person(s) requesting any run/trip outside the regularly scheduled runs will follow the following procedure:
a. A written Request for Trip form will be completed by the person(s) requesting the trip. Any trip or trip cancellation will be included in this form. See attached Request for Trip Form, Appendix F. The form will include the date and time request was submitted to the Transportation Supervisor and/or his/her designee and the date, time, place and any special instructions of the trip. The form will be signed by the person(s) making the request.
b. Upon receipt of the form the Transportation Supervisor and/or his/her designee will acknowledge receipt of the request with the date and time the request was received. The acknowledgment will be signed by the Transportation Supervisor and/or his/her designee. The completed form will be posted with the posting of the trip and a copy will be given to the transportation association representative.
c. The present forms will be exhausted and re-printed forms will follow the Request for Trip Form, Appendix F. The transportation supervisor/ designee will follow the guidelines of the Request for Trip form until new forms are re- printed.
Extra Runs. All bus drivers will be offered the opportunity to drive the extra runs. If none of the regular drivers volunteer for the overtime, then it will be offered to the substitute drivers. If the substitute drivers choose not to accept the run then it will be assigned to the regular drivers on a rotation basis.
Extra Runs. The following bus runs are classified as extra runs for bidding purposes: Vo-Tech,. All remaining runs are to be assigned to available drivers on the basis of seniority by the transportation supervisor. Each bus driver will be provided the opportunity to have one (1) extra run based on classification seniority. When each driver has accepted or declined his/her opportunity to be assigned an extra run, all remaining extra run positions will be posted for bidding. All bidding for extra runs will take place prior to the start of each school year. Posting and bidding for extra runs will follow the procedure for vacancies, set forth in Section A. 1. above.
Extra Runs. Extra runs shall be paid by the hour from the time the employee is assigned to leave until return of employee to school, unless otherwise posted. The employee shall be allotted time with pay for pre‐trip (not to exceed 15 minutes) and post trip (not to exceed 15 minutes) inspections and clean up after. All buses must be swept and trash emptied into the transportation dumpsters upon return from the extra trip. Any driver who has an extra trip, who fails to clean their bus following the extra trip, will receive one warning. Any further occurrence, the driver will be removed from eligibility for extra trips for a minimum of thirty (30) school days. Exceptions will only be made if needed cleaning products are not available upon return. Staff on extra trips, with the exception of a one hour meal period, is to be available at the event/trip location. Extra runs will be posted in bid form on the bulletin board in the Transportation Department at least five (5) days in advance, when possible. Any bus driver that has driven 30 days of which school is in session and continues to meet the definition of a regular or substitute driver is eligible to bid each extra run. The bidding driver not having an assigned extra run for the longest period of time is to be granted preference. The run will be assigned with at least five (5) days notice, when possible. Drivers assigned an extra trip who later decline the extra trip will be recorded as if they had driven the trip. If the trip time is changed and this change forces the driver to choose between driving their regular route or the extra trip, if the driver keeps their regular route and releases the extra trip, the extra trip will not be charged against the driver as if they had driven the extra trip. When posting for an extra trip exceeds a two‐day notice (>48 hours), the run will be posted for one day and then assigned according to the aforementioned method. When the notification for posting is less than forty‐eight (48) hours, driver assignment for the extra trip will be determined from a second driver list. This list will be known as the "Last Minute" trip list and driver participation is voluntary. Any weekend trip, using a school vehicle, that begins on a Saturday or Sunday and requires a CDL, must be placed for bid as normal. Consideration for Volunteers or Driving Time Pay only will not be allowed for these Saturday/Sunday trips.
Extra Runs. A. Extra runs will be offered to contracted drivers in accordance with driver classification seniority.
B. Identified extra runs will be communicated to all drivers in writing via email and text message when the Director of Transportation becomes aware of an extra run. Trip location and all available information will be shared in this initial communication.
C. Drivers must indicate their interest in driving extra runs to the Director of Transportation in writing within forty-eight (48) hours of the initial communication regarding the extra run(s).

Extra runs within the District will be offered in accordance with driver seniority without rotation.
