Summary
The bill changes who qualifies for state‑supported school transportation, adding students who must travel on dangerous routes and certain special‑needs students, and it lets parents ask districts to label a route hazardous. Districts that receive designated state funds must offer rides to those eligible, and the state board can allocate money specifically for this purpose. It also earmarks $500,000 for the 2027 fiscal year to support unsafe‑route transportation.
