Metro Detroit schools are stepping up big time to tackle the bus driver shortage—raising pay, adding health benefits, and even offering cash bonuses to attract new drivers. Novi schools now pay up to $29.50 an hour with insurance, plus paid training and snow days. Wayne-Westland built their own training center, while Brighton is handing out sign-on bonuses. Still, the split workday keeps some away, but for others, like self-employed folks, the benefits are a game changer. With school starting soon, will these perks finally fill those empty seats? What would make you consider driving a school bus? #Transportation #DetroitSchools #BusDriverShortage
