Transportation
Educational Programs & Services

Local school districts are responsible for the transportation of their students. If specialized transportation as a related educational service is needed, the district can request that IU 8 provide transportation for students. IU 8 provides transportation to students enrolled in IU 8 operated, district, preschool and approved private school programs. The transportation needs of each child are assessed individually.

Transportation includes:

  1. Travel to and from and between schools

  2. Specialized equipment such as special or adapted buses, lifts and ramps if required to provide special education for a child with a disability

  3. Travel to and from community-based sites for the purpose of instruction and work experience.
