 After much thought they decided not to do it. Three companies made presentations before the school board. Even though the companies told board members they were well qualified for the job, their presentations raised questions and concerns among bus drivers. Would they lose their jobs? And what about health insurance? The companies assured the crowd that wouldn't happen. But bus drivers were still worried about the students. The drivers claimed the national companies don't make adequate background check employees. In the end school board members decide not to pursue the matter any further.
