Ask a kid what happens first at school and they won’t say the bell. They’ll talk about the bus ride.
Before a teacher takes attendance, before the cafeteria opens, before anyone has looked at a lesson plan, someone has already pulled up to a stop in the dark, opened a door, and said good morning by name.
That person notices when a kid climbs on quiet. That person notices when a kid climbs on cold. For a lot of children, the ride to school might be the calmest twenty minutes of their day so far, and it’s calm because of who is behind the wheel.
Clarendon CISD is looking for people willing to be that. You don’t need a CDL yet — we’ll pay for the training and walk you through it. Routes run mornings and afternoons, which leaves your midday to yourself, and most drivers make between $800 and $1,000 a month for that drive time. It’s part-time work with full-time meaning, and it’s one of the few jobs in this town where you’ll know YOU were the reason a kid’s day started right.
Call the Transportation Office if you want to talk about it.
