Summary of the Introduced Bill

HB 425 -- Student Transportation

Sponsor:  Pearce

This bill specifies the conditions under which it is permissible
for a public school district to provide transportation to
resident students who do not attend the district's public
schools.  If transportation can be accomplished without the use
of state or additional local funds or capital expense and the
parent agrees to pay the actual cost of transporting the student,
the local school board may provide the transportation.  The bill
also specifies how to determine the cost and the payment
requirements.  Any district providing this transportation must
develop rules to address the seating of non-public school
students and the development of bus routes.  Local school boards
may establish additional rules for eligibility.
