May a school bus driver renew their “S” endorsement if they are currently not employed as a school bus driver?
A. No. A school bus driver must be employed with an educational facility or an authorized school bus contractor prior to undergoing the criminal history record check through the Department of Education. Should the school bus driver’s “S” endorsement expire, the Motor Vehicle Commission will allow a period of time for the driver to renew the endorsement. If the school bus driver does not renew in that period of time, s/he will be required to undergonew testing for the “S” endorsement.
