Staff can no longer drive students to or from school

What happened
The board voted that school employees may not drive students to or from school, except in an emergency the executive director approves. A choice about busing for field trips was put off.
Why it matters to families
The school's budget shows no state transportation money, so it does not appear to run buses. Families who counted on rides from staff now need other ways to get children to school.
The evidence
September 15, 2026 minutes record the motion on staff transporting students, which passed, and the tabled field-trip busing item. The 2025-26 budget lists a /bin/bash transportation allowance.
