Massachusetts H570 allows parents to decline school transportation annually and mandates a study on collaborative transportation.
Massachusetts H570 amends the General Laws to allow parents and guardians to decline school transportation for their students annually. The offer to decline must be made at least 30 days before the academic year starts. If a parent declines, the school district is not required to provide transportation for that year. The bill also mandates the Department of Elementary and Secondary Education to maintain a registry of all vendors providing school transportation services and to conduct a study on student transportation collaboratives and consortiums.
