We need SUB & ACTIVITY BUS DRIVERS, and we truly need our community’s help.
Every game, meet, competition, performance, and activity means something to our students. They’ve practiced. They’ve worked hard. Their coaches and sponsors are ready. Their families are ready to cheer them on.
But we still have to get them there.
That’s where YOU can make a difference.
We are looking for people willing to help drive our students to sporting events and activities throughout the school year. You don’t have to drive every trip. Even helping with a few trips can make a HUGE difference!
🚌 Sub & Activity Bus Drivers Needed
💰 $19.32/hour
⏰ Flexible opportunities
🎓 Training support available
💛 Help support Mid-Prairie students
🏆 Get our Hawks to their games, competitions & events!
Already have your CDL with School Bus & Passenger Endorsements? We would LOVE to hear from you.
Don’t have it yet but are willing to obtain it? Please reach out! We can help you through the process.
Our students should never have to wonder whether they can get to an event because we don’t have a driver.
Maybe you’re retired. Maybe you have a flexible work schedule. Maybe you’re a parent, grandparent, community member, or someone who simply wants to make a difference for our kids.
We need all the help we can get. Even a little of your time matters.
