      Pros

      Same route from Sept -June when the school year ends. Paid through school holidays and recess. No lifting or pulling, just driving to and from school.

      Cons

      Low seniority means you will receive the least valuable routes. Children can test you at times due to their emotions and energy. School bus sometimes may experience engine issues or safety concerns,
