Allows use of non-school vehicles for student transportation under certain conditions.
This bill makes permanent the temporary exemption allowing the use of vehicles other than school buses for student transportation. It permits the use of motorcoaches, small buses, and vans for transporting students when school buses are unavailable or impractical due to economic factors. The bill requires an adult staff chaperone to escort students and mandates that drivers meet specific qualifications. The Department of Education and the State Public Charter School Commission must report annually on the use of these exemptions.
