Bill overview
This bill aims to ensure that local school districts in Massachusetts are fairly reimbursed for the transportation costs of foster children attending public schools. Currently, the state’s reimbursement system doesn’t fully cover these expenses, placing a financial burden on local districts and potentially impacting the ability to provide adequate transportation for vulnerable students. The bill seeks to correct this inequity and provide sufficient funding to support foster children’s access to education.
