SB 2513 Mississippi Senate · 2026 Regular Session

School bus drivers; provide annual salary supplement.

SB 2513 would require Mississippi public school districts to provide every school bus driver - including temporary and substitute drivers - with an annual $5,000 salary supplement. This supplement would be paid from the district's existing transportation budget, which is allocated by the state based on factors like student enrollment and school district density. The bill does not change the current minimum monthly wage for drivers but adds this fixed annual payment as a new requirement. It would directly affect all school bus drivers employed in Mississippi's public school system.
