Lincoln County Schools is currently looking to hire school bus drivers and substitute drivers. Below are the steps in obtaining a license:
1) DOT physical - Physician’s Medical (Park City across from John Deere), Dr. Gafford, FastPace
2) Get a 2C form from garage (1010 Hedgemont Avenue, Fayetteville) and a book to study to take a CDL test at DMV.
3) Test for CDL Class B with Passenger and School Bus endorsements. There are several written tests.
4) We’ll set you up to do the mandatory Entry Level Driver Training (ELDT) online. This is a new requirement by the Federal Motor Safety Carriers Association. This involves watching video presentations and taking quizzes followed by a comprehensive test.
5) We’ll train you to do all the necessary skills items for the actual school bus test… pre-trip, air brakes, driving, backing, etc.
6) Application, fingerprint & background check, and pre-employment drug test.
