The Quesnel School District is dealing with a bus driver shortage.
It’s to the point that there has been some bus route cancellations early in the school year.
Secretary-Treasurer Jennifer Woollends says “we definitely had some impact from that last year as well. So ya we’re looking for drivers. Anyone with a class 1 or class 2 can apply with us. Right now we’ve temporarily removed the grade 12 requirement.”
Woollends says people can send their resumes in.
“We have it advertised on our Facebook page, on our website, as well as by contacting the transportation department.”
Meanwhile, the Transportation Department is trying to minimize the impact on students and families by rotating cancelled routes and reallocating drivers from other departments when possible.
