Tennessee leaders are discussing a possible change that could help schools find more qualified bus drivers. The proposal would allow people to become school bus drivers at age 21 after earning the required commercial driver’s license and meeting safety standards.
Supporters believe the change could attract younger workers and give school districts more applicants. They say strong training, background checks, and driving requirements would remain important for keeping students safe.
