TO:
Honorable Jimmie Don Aycock, Chair, House Committee on Public Education
 
FROM:
Ursula Parks, Director, Legislative Budget Board
 
IN RE:
SB1541 by Van de Putte (Relating to discipline of public school students by school bus drivers.), As Engrossed

No fiscal implication to the State is anticipated.

The bill would require that student codes of conduct specify the circumstances under which a student may be removed from a school bus. Any disciplinary placement for a student with a disability receiving special education services would be made by a admission, review, and dismissal (ARD) committee.

Local Government Impact

No significant fiscal implication to units of local government is anticipated. School districts may be required to amend the student code of conduct to address behavior on a school bus.
