Famous for its vibrant cities and unique cultural heritage, Louisiana is a popular destination for 53 million tourists each year. While there’s a lot to see in New Orleans and Baton Rouge, some people prefer to explore the bayous, swamps and the diverse landscape of this state. Tourism plays a significant role in Louisiana’s economy, but life within the Pelican State looks different for its residents. Most of them use a personal vehicle to commute to work, but children also have the option to take a school bus to school.

Even though the public education system of this state is facing several challenges, schools preserve the state’s cultural heritage by incorporating the French language and local history into their programs. Being a student in Louisiana is an experience different from anywhere else in the country, but school buses in Louisiana work just like everywhere else. If you want to become a school bus driver, we’ll help you obtain a School Bus (S) endorsement on your CDL. In Louisiana, this endorsement is granted after passing a written knowledge test as well as a skills test in a school bus.

About the Louisiana CDL

We’ll help you with the theory so you can create a strong foundation for your new career. Initially, all aspiring commercial drivers will riffle through the official 2026 CDL manual. Containing essential information on all commercial endorsements (including School Buses and Passenger Vehicles), this manual serves as the basis for the official written exam. However, many students don’t find it to be a suitable learning resource, which often complicates their understanding of this topic.

There are countless alternatives available online, including our Louisiana CDL School Bus practice tests. Specific to Louisiana, these practice tests are current for January 2026. We are all familiar with the emotions of anxiety and nervousness present before the day of a big exam. You’ll probably experience those again, but there’s a way to make them less impactful on your performance. By practicing consistently with our practice tests, you’ll naturally familiarize yourself with the content and format of the actual exam. When the big day comes, you’ll show up prepared and confident.
