It's always a great day to be a Lion! Come join our Pride!

The process for getting a CDL is not difficult, and we will help you! Here is what you need to do:

• Take the written portion of the exam. Here is the study guide. You can get a printed copy at any testing site. You will need to take the test for Class B with passengers. You do NOT need to test for air brakes.
• After you pass all portions, take the paper the testing site gives you to the license office and get your permit. You also have to take 2 forms of proof-of-residency and a photo ID.
• Come see us--James Luttrell is our federally approved site trainer, and he will provide your training to take the pre-check and driving portions of the test. He will also take you to the testing site when you take the test. Before he does that, we will need you to complete an application and get a fingerprint background check to ensure you are eligible to work for the district.
• After you pass your test, you will take your paperwork to the license office again with 2 forms of proof-of-residency and a photo ID and get your CDL.
• As soon as you have a CDL and are approved by the Board, you can sub bus routes and/or drive activity trips.

If you are interested in becoming a substitute teacher and you do not have the required 36 college hours, you can do an online course that will allow you to get a substitute certificate. Here is the link to that course, and here is the link to the DESE web page that gives you more information about what you need to do to get a substitute certification. Our daily rate for subs for the 2024-25 school year will be $100/day!
