    Our client, HopSkipDrive, is a ridesharing company that provides service to children in getting to and from school. This company has always been dedicated to making a difference in the lives of children and families. They understand that transportation can be the difference between success and struggle, which is why they're on a mission to use technology, operational expertise, and new thinking to help kids reach their full potential by providing a safe, dependable way to get them where they need to be. Every day, school districts arrange transportation for hundreds of thousands of students who require highly specialized vehicles, equipment, or supports. This includes students needing an additional adult in the vehicle.

     

    The Rider Assistant WILL NOT be driving the vehicles, rather they will be sitting in the passenger seat while someone else drives. Their sole responsibility is to monitor the rider and make sure they get to and from school safely.
