The District shall offer transportation of students who reside less than one and one-half miles from the appropriate school when, in the judgment of the Board, the age, health, or safety of the students warrants such action. The one and one-half mile requirement may also be waived for transportation of students with disabilities as determined by the student’s Individualized Education Program (IEP). The Board shall consider the criteria set out in the “Evaluation Instrument for Determining Safety Busing Zones.”
