Like it or not, the school bus driver has freedom of political speach. School grounds are public property. A Confederate Flag is no different from an Obama bumper sticker.
If it was a private school and private property, his employer can fire him.

So in effect what you're saying is, if it was a private school, he could have been fired if it was an Obama bumper sticker on his car? Very interesting.

A private school in the heart of KKK country? Sure. If it has less than 50 employees, a private employer can do pretty much anything they want.

Are you speaking only of "political" speech? Certainly there are limits to what statements a teacher, for example, can have on his/her shirt; profanity, and so forth.
And what does a Confederate flag say? Can a public school teacher wear a shirt that says "White people rule?" Does that fall under the protection of political speech?

i'm sure some d'bag will bring my family ninto into it BUT, in a democracy, majority rules. if 99.999999% of a towns population wants a christmas fair but 1 person finds it offensive, what happens. i'm not stating my opinion. just playing devils advocate. can a black teacher wear a black unity t shirt? just throwing it out there.

Going off the first post of the thread...
First student is a private company the is hired by school districts to do the bus duties. The guy would not have had his truck at the school, it would have been at the bus depot, which would be private property.
