What transportation requirements are in place for students with disabilities?

Students with disabilities who have special transportation needs must have those needs detailed in the student's IEP (Individualized Educational Plan) under Related Services.  These needs may include the requirement for an aide on the bus with the student, curb-to-curb service, transportation for a student with disabilities living less than one mile from school, and transportation for special education summer school.  If written into the student's IEP these expenses are considered eligible for state transportation aid.
