New Bus Driver Class Begins June 2

 

The Tuscaloosa County School System has immediate opportunities for bus drivers! Contact the TCSS Transportation Department today for information about joining our New Driver Training Class, which begins June 2, 2026.

TCSS provides all training needed to earn your Class B CDL with passenger and school bus endorsements, and your State of Alabama School Bus Operator’s Certificate. We also provide training for those wanting to be a bus aide. 

These positions offer health insurance, retirement benefits, and opportunities to drive more and earn more, when you are available! The positions work well with other work schedules or as a part-time job and align with the TCSS school schedule.
