New York operates one of the largest school bus fleets in the nation. From New York City – where the Department of Education runs the biggest school transportation system in the U.S. – to districts in Buffalo, Rochester, Syracuse, and Albany, school bus drivers are in constant demand. This is a stable career with competitive pay: New York school bus drivers typically earn $20-28/hour, with benefits and a predictable schedule.
Requirements to become a school bus driver in New York:
You must obtain a Commercial Driver’s License (CDL) with both the School Bus (S) and Passenger Vehicles (P) endorsements. You cannot drive a school bus with just one—both are mandatory.
