Extra trips definition

Extra trips are special trips originating after 4:30 p.m. on school days and any trip scheduled on Saturday, Sunday, or a holiday. The late bus from school to home is not an extra trip. 5.2 Regular Home-to-School Runs 5.2.1 Bus drivers are hourly employees and will be assigned to regular home-to-school runs in a manner to achieve efficient and economical bus operations. The Transportation Director, or designee, will regularly review home-to-school runs and driver assignments to assure the runs and assigned hours are efficient and economical. 5.2.2 Whenever administratively practicable, and when it is efficient and economical, drivers will be assigned home-to-school runs so that the drivers with the earliest hire dates will have the most regularly assigned home-to-school run hours per day. 5.2.2.1 Bus drivers shall bid by seniority on regular home-to- school runs twice a year. The bid shall be held prior to the start of the fall and spring semesters. 5.2.2.2 At least 2 working days prior to the bid date the District shall post in the drivers room the seniority list, the routes and the route times. 5.2.3 Whenever administratively practicable, driver requests for specific home-to-school runs will be honored if such requests do not violate District policy or do not result in inefficient or uneconomical operations. 5.2.4 When route consolidation during the school year results in reduced assigned hours, bus drivers have the option of accepting the reduced hours, taking extra work, filling a temporary/substitute assignment for an absent driver, or bidding on another route at the next bidding period. The District will also make a good faith effort to assign affected drivers to alternate work, including, but not limited to, substituting on routes which do not conflict with regular assignments, or extra work. Drivers with reduced assigned hours have priority over other drivers for extra work, provided they have appropriate qualifications for the work. Route consolidation as used in this subsection does not include temporary consolidation of routes because of absences of drivers or other emergency short-term consolidations. 5.2.5 It is understood that “consolidation” as used in 5.2.4 does not include the reduction of hours caused by a special education student not needing/qualifying for home-to-school transportation. Special education route consolidation will be handled on a case-by-case basis, with the intent of maintaining original bid hours until the next bid period.
Extra trips means an assignment to transport students to any event sanctioned or authorized by the District other than regular to and from school transportation. Drivers will receive an additional $0.25 per hour for each hour of the extra trip.
