Board affirms serious safety hazard findings that affect transportation eligibility
Summary
The board unanimously approved the annual review of serious safety hazard findings that determine eligibility for district-provided transportation for students living under the 1.5-mile threshold.
Business officer Ms. Jilek reviewed the district's statutory obligation to provide transportation to students living more than 1.5 miles from school and the procedural requirement to annually review whether hazardous conditions justify transportation for students who live closer. After review, the board moved to approve the Serious Safety Hazard Findings for the 2025–26 school year; motion by Mr. Van De Velde, second by Mr. Blair, passed unanimously.
The approval affirms the conditions under which the district will continue to provide transportation to students who otherwise would not meet the distance threshold; the board recorded no dissenting votes.
