Finish the Year Strong: Pick Up Extra Routes and Holiday Charters in December

A December Game Plan for Stability and Earnings

Year-end brings lists, deadlines, and decisions. One decision that pays off fast: a reliable schedule with the option to add hours as you see fit. School bus driving at FishingCreek Transportation gives you exactly that—morning and afternoon routes you can count on, plus opportunities for activity trips and charters when available. Whether you’re shoring up your budget, building savings, or setting the tone for the year ahead, December is a smart month to get rolling.

Why December Works

  • Consistency: Schools keep operating; your base hours remain steady.

  • Optional boosts: Holiday events and activities can provide extra pay.

  • Calendar clarity: You’ll know your route times and can plan festivities around them.

  • Momentum for January: Master routines now to start the new year strong.

Paid Training, Seasonal Readiness

We’ll prepare you with a training pathway that covers safety, inspections, radio communication, student management, and winter operations. You’ll learn how to manage shorter daylight windows, handle low-temperature startups, and navigate bus stops that may be affected by frost or early snow. The goal is competence and calm—skills that serve you now and for the rest of the school year.

Optional Hours, On Your Terms

Some drivers like to stack hours in December; others prefer to focus on core routes and family time. We support both approaches. If you want more, ask about activity trips, athletics, or special event charters (where available). If you want balance, maintain your base routes and enjoy evenings and weekends that align with school calendars.

Everyday Safety, Every Season

Drivers conduct thorough pre-trips—checking lights, tires, fluids, defrosters, and emergency exits—before every route. Clear windows and mirrors are non-negotiable. On the road, you’ll adjust following distances, brake earlier, and communicate proactively with dispatch about delays or hazards. The result: dependable service and peace of mind.
