The Cobb County School District announced Tuesday that school bus drivers and monitors received another $1,200 retention bonus in their December paychecks.
The district distributed bonuses for drivers and monitors in May, and in a release said that new employees in those positions who have been hired by Feb. 28 will receive a $1,000 bonus.
“Our bus drivers and monitors are the reason 70% of our students make it to school every day,” Cobb school district Chief Operations Officer Marc Smith said in the release.
“They are valuable members of our Cobb Schools team, and we want to make sure we keep them on our team. At the same time, we also have the opportunity to hire new safety-minded professionals.”
