It takes several steps to become a school bus driver in Massachusetts, with the most challenging being the official written knowledge test and the official skills test. Aspiring school bus drivers have access to many learning resources that can help them prepare in advance. In Massachusetts, you’ll need a School Bus (S) endorsement to drive a school bus. A Passenger Vehicles (P) endorsement is also required.
Admittedly, there’s a lot of learning on the job. You’ll improve with practice, and as you transport children to and from school, you’ll naturally gain more experience. Since knowledge forms the foundation for your entire career, in Massachusetts, the School Bus endorsement can be obtained only after passing the CDL School Bus written knowledge test and the skills test in a school bus. All drivers must also undergo background checks, pass medical examinations, and complete training programs.
Based on the official MA CDL HandbookHandbook‑based (2025) + exam‑taker feedback
School buses are among the safest forms of transportation due to their safety features, such as flashing lights, stop arms, fire extinguishers, and first-aid kits. Additionally, the Massachusetts Registry of Motor Vehicles (RMV) only grants this endorsement to commercial drivers who fully master this subject.
Initially, you’ll find essential information in the official 2025 CDL manual. While this manual gives you an insight into this endorsement and its requirements, it may not be sufficient by itself. To pass the official written exam on their first attempt, many students need to use additional online resources.
Our Massachusetts CDL School Bus practice tests can serve as both an educational tool and a way to simulate the actual written exam. Consisting of 20 questions, these tests are updated for December 2025 and include several features. After each question, a detailed explanation highlights the correct answer and its meaning. A general overview is also permanently displayed, giving information regarding the total number of questions, how many correct answers you’ve submitted, and how many mistakes are allowed before you fail the practice test.
