District to consider transportation for students living under one mile from school

What happened

The board agenda proposes authorizing the district to transport students who live less than one mile from school as part of its 2026–27 bus-route approvals. The proposal would extend transportation eligibility to students in that distance group; the agenda does not state how many students or schools would be affected.

Why it matters to families

Transportation access can affect families’ ability to get students to school, including those living close to campus. This is only a scheduled proposal; the agenda does not establish that the board approved it.

The evidence

The September 17, 2026 agenda lists “Approve 2026-2027 Bus Routes” and “Authorize the district to transport students who live less than one mile from school” under consent-agenda action items; it also lists a 2026 tax-rate hearing and a new-business action to set the 2026 tax levy rate.
