"JCPS Bus Driver Shortage Continues: More Callouts Expected"
Originally Published 2 years ago — by WDRB
Nearly 90 bus drivers from Jefferson County Public Schools (JCPS) called out on Friday, causing delays in bus routes. The drivers are protesting against a lack of student discipline and long bus routes. JCPS has been facing consistent driver shortages this school year, resulting in delays of up to three to four hours. The bus drivers' union president expects more call-outs on Monday. JCPS officials are working on implementing changes, including an online referral system, to address the drivers' concerns.
