The Kirksville R-3 school district is still looking for bus drivers. They say the lack of enough bus drivers is still heavily impacting their partner company EccoRide’s ability to deliver timely transportation for our students. The process for becoming a driver first includes getting a class B CDL permit with school and bus passenger endorsements, then you apply online at eccoride.com. There’s an interview, background check, and drug test, and if hired, there’s training, and if you pass the test for the CDL, you can get a permit, and start to drive. They need route drivers, trip drivers, and standby/substitute drivers.
