School District 54 is launching a pilot project aimed at easing teachers’ commutes between Smithers and Houston.
The District says the lengthy commute, and gas and maintenance costs that come with it, have long dissuaded prospective teachers from working in Houston.
Now, the School District has provided teachers living in Smithers with a bus to help make the hour plus commute.
A pair of teachers have agreed to drive the bus, while fuel costs and maintenance will be covered by the District.
According to the district, as many as a dozen teachers could make use of the service.
