Status:
Approve reimbursement in lieu of transportation to parent or guardian of students for the 2006-2007 school year for contract car.
By mutual agreement with Pupil Transportation Department, parents or guardians are afforded the option of receiving reimbursement in lieu of school bus transportation when they live in a very isolated area or when the student is a medically fragile child that requires services not easily provided on school buses, or for some other reason that the cost to the School Board would be greater to provide transportation than the cost to reimburse the parents or guardian. If students are transported to and from school in private vehicles owned by parents or guardians, the School Board will reimburse the parent or guardian the standard mileage reimbursement per mile for two round trips each day the student is in attendance at school.
The parent or guardian of students at Mirror Lake Elementary, Wingate Oaks Center, Forest Glen Middle, and North Lauderdale Elementary will provide transportation in a private vehicle in lieu of required school bus service. This request is authorized under Florida Statute 1006.22 and State Board of Education Rule 6A-3.017.
Funding for this reimbursement of transportation cost is included in the Pupil Transportation operation budget.
