Do I tip the school bus drivers?

Tip? Gift? Nothing??? I guess I'd do something but it doesn't seem right to give practically the same or even half the gift you give to the teachers who teach them all year.. Not that I don't appreciate them getting my DS to and from school safely Chat Icon

All these extra gifts with the kids getting bigger is still new to me.

TIA

i will give them something, they are actually very nice people and they keep my daughter safe, so i have to praise them somehow.

I think it would be a nice gesture if you gave them a little something. In the past, I know Dunkin Donut sold little gift certificate booklets worth different amounts of money. Each page was worth $1. They started at $5.

Hi Liz! I would probably do something small, $5 to $10 at most. A box of chocolate, a DD giftcard, etc.

I tip $20, in a card, but have always had great bus drivers who, leave my daughter right in front of my house.
