Transportation Transfer Fair
The St. Tammany Parish School Board will conduct a Transfer Fair for all Bus Drivers interested in vacant routes. The Transfer Fair will begin April 24, 2023 with all transfers effective August 10, 2023.
Bus Drivers, Temporary Drivers, and Itinerant Drivers are eligible to participate in the Transfer Fair. Day-to-day substitute drivers are not eligible to participate in the Transfer Fair process.
Employees interested in a vacant route must submit a transfer request form to the Human Resources Department by 4:30 pm on or before the day of each deadline as outlined in the timeline provided in the Transfer Fair packet. A transfer form must be completed for each route of interest. The forms are fillable and must be sent via e-mail. Type your information on the form and send it to ashley.courville@stpsb.org.
Routes will be awarded per Louisiana Revised Statue 17:493.1. Employees who are awarded vacant routes will be notified by the Human Resources Department. This voluntary transfer process will continue until all routes are filled or until June 29th. Vacant routes not filled as a result of the Transfer Fair will be filled by an approved applicant. Routes that become available after the final round of the Transfer Fair, will be considered temporary and filled with a Substitute Driver, Temporary Driver, or an Itinerant Driver.
