Recently Organized First Student Bus Drivers hold their first proposal meeting and Appoints Negotiating Committee members

Breaking bread with a new Teamster family.

Welcoming new members is a thing to celebrate. What better way to have a first contract proposal meeting than at the Local with the barbecue running and holding it outdoors on a beautiful fall day.

On Saturday, our newly organized group of Bus Drivers at First Student got together, reviewed their survey data on the needs of their group, and began the process of hammering out their first contract.

“We had excellent discussions on many important topics”, said Business Agent Tracy Kelley, ” these drivers have set out to secure their new future, and are quickly building on their unity to secure the strongest possible contract.”

Big thank you to Natalie Dewers and Vanessa Bumbico, who stepped up and will represent the drivers during negotiations.
