Nebraska schools are facing a severe bus driver shortage, causing delays, route cancellations, and longer commutes for students. Low pay, challenging work conditions, and competition from other industries have made it difficult to recruit and retain drivers. As a result, some districts are forced to combine or cut routes, leaving families scrambling to find alternative transportation. Schools are offering hiring bonuses, wage increases, and other incentives, but these efforts have yet to fully solve the problem. This episode will explore the causes of the shortage, its impact on students and families, and what schools are doing to fill these empty seats.
