Important School Bus Information

We are facing a shortage of spare bus drivers in your area this fall. Parents/guardians must be aware that your child’s school bus may be cancelled if the regular driver is unable to drive.

Bus cancellations will be announced on CKBI & CJVR radio and will also be posted on the Saskatchewan River’s website at (Click on SRPSD daily bus report).

We are making every effort to recruit and train new drivers so as to avoid a shortage. If you or anyone you know is interested in part time work as a bus driver, please contact Ryan Bruce, Manager of Transportation Services at (306)763-2323. You can also apply online at

Training can be done at your pace and can fit around almost any other schedule (work or home) that you may have on the go. Applying now would ensure you have time to complete the school bus training for the 2014-2015 school year.

Thank you,

Ryan Bruce
