Thanks to the snow front that has come into the City of Windsor and Essex County, local school buses have been cancelled.
According to Windsor-Essex Student Transportation Services, school buses have been cancelled in Area A - City of Windsor and Area B - County of Essex, because of the inclement weather that has come to the area.
Despite the bus cancellations, both the Greater Essex County District School Board and Windsor-Essex Catholic District School Board schools remain open for staff and students.
P.E.I.'s Public Schools Branch is looking for 50 substitute bus drivers, and it'll be recruiting at three job fairs on Saturday, June 8. The job fairs are located at the Atlantic Superstore in Montague, Royalty Crossing in Charlottetown, and the bus parking lot of Three Oaks Senior High in Summerside. All three run from 9 a.m. until noon. Dave Gillis, the director of transportation and risk management for the Public Schools Branch, said the number of substitute drivers they're hiring isn't unusual. "We are always looking for more. Our drivers tend to have an older demographic," he said.
