All in all I’m looking for all the specs and checklists for how to care for this bus as I’m a greenhorn.
We didn’t even know we had a coolant filter till recently and now I don’t even know where to look in order to change it out!
Any information greatly appreciated.

Looks like you will have to put together your own service manual depending on what systems and parts you discover you have. Some Blue Bird manuals are
HERE but are not exclusive to your bus but may give you some ideas.
For an example, the J-230-SB Spicer Drive Axle manuals you may need are
HERE and
HERE
You can get info on the 300R transmission from
ALLISON
CUMMINS QUICKSERVE will allow you to register the engine serial number and give you some information.
You can search for all of the filters currently on the bus and get replacements for future servicing etc....
Have you done any conversion work or driven it much since you bought it? I believe it had around 92,000. Nice bus.
