Does it sometimes feel like the wheels on the bus are coming off as you approach the intersection of a student's IEP, transportation and IDEA? Erin and Jeremy diagnose what is required under IDEA when it comes to transportation, including bus suspensions and extracurricular and non-academic services. The discussion references a case from California that drives home the importance of understanding your obligations under your state's requirements so you don't have to hit the brakes when an issue arises. They give you some practical tips to jump start your processes and procedures so it's green lights all the way.
