Mileage Data

• REGULAR TO AND FROM SCHOOL ROUTES -

Regular "to and from" school bus routes are those which have been established for the purpose of transporting eligible children to school (during the regular school day calendar) in the morning and back home in the afternoon at the end of the school day. These routes transport eligible children from their homes or a designated school bus stop all the way to

• school. These transportation services must be

performed by use of a school bus or per capita feeder agreements.
