New Jersey S4835 mandates student transportation needs be considered in individualized education programs and includes transportation personnel on.

New Jersey S4835 amends special education laws to ensure student transportation needs are considered in individualized education programs (IEP). The bill requires the IEP team to include a school district's director of transportation, who must attend all IEP meetings unless excused by the parent or guardian or if the student does not require transportation services. The school district must provide a copy of the student's completed student information card to all school bus personnel assigned to the student's route and any contracted transportation providers, with parental consent.
