Question 8.

Do all children with disabilities have a right to transportation as a related service?

Answer

No. Only children with disabilities who need transportation services and have these services noted in their IEPs receive transportation services.

If your child does not have transportation services in the IEP, your child will not receive transportation services.

If the school provides transportation for nondisabled children, it must provide transportation to children with disabilities.

If the school does not provide transportation to nondisabled children, the team will make decisions about transporting your child on a case-by-case basis.

If your child has transportation needs and the school will transport him on a bus, you may consider asking the bus driver to joint the IEP team.
