School Bus Drivers Are Needed In Hawkins County. The District Is Currently 12 Drivers Short, Which Is The Result Of An Aging Driver Population, Economic Pressures, Training Backlogs, Frustrated Parents, And Bad Behavior By Students. In The Meantime, There Are Nearly 100 Routes With Many Being Doubled Or Running Concurrently To A Second Route Until Further Notice. The School System Is Asking Parents To Be Patient.
