Anchorage School District officials believe they’ll have full bus driver staffing by the beginning of October, given how many people are currently in the training and hiring process.
How much is the district paying bus drivers?. Dallas-based Reliant Transportation, which is contracted to provide service for two-thirds of the district’s bus routes this year, is paying $22 an hour for drivers.
“What that means is that we’re within arm’s reach of our goal to be fully staffed by October,” Bryantt said in an interview.“We still have an urgent need for bus drivers,” Bryantt said. “Because while we do have a lot of folks in the applicant process, they may not all make it to the finish line. So please, please, please apply to be a bus driver.
Since the shortage was not caused by a natural disaster, civil unrest or a disease, it’s not within the allowable reasons for National Guard deployment in Alaska, according to Patty Sullivan, a spokesperson for the Department of Law.

Allentown Teacher Says District Defamed Him Over Jan. 6 Trump RallyA Pennsylvania teacher who attended Donald Trump’s “Stop the Steal” rally in Washington has sued his former school district. Jason Moorehead claims the Allentown School District destroyed his reputation and career by falsely linking him to the Jan. 6 Capitol insurrection. Moorehead says he was nowhere near the Capitol that day. The school district ordered him back to work after its probe found he didn’t break any district rules by going to the Trump rally. Moorehead refused, claiming district officials turned the community against him and made it impossible for him to teach. The district fired him last month. Moorehead is seeking monetary damages and a retraction.
