Payment in Lieu of Transportation Guidelines
Payment in Lieu of Transportation Guidelines
Pupils enrolled in chartered non-public or community schools may be entitled to pupil transportation services from Beavercreek City Schools. Therefore, upon enrollment in a chartered non-public or community school, parents/guardians wishing to have transportation services provided by Beavercreek Schools must complete the Private School Transportation Request and return to Beavercreek City Schools' Transportation Department. Upon receipt of this document, Transportation staff will follow ODE procedures to determine whether the child is eligible for service.
Ohio law allows for Beavercreek City School District to determine the impracticality of transportation after consideration of a number of factors. Upon that determination, Beavercreek City Schools is then permitted to offer payment-in-lieu-of-transportation to the parent/guardian.
To enable that action, the Beavercreek Board of Education and parents/guardians must complete several steps as follows:
The parent/guardian must request transportation (see form above).
The Board of Education will pass a resolution declaring transportation to be impractical.
The Board of Education will then provide the parent/guardian with notification of that resolution and ask the parent to accept the determination.
The parent/guardian must acknowledge and return the waiver form to confirm their acceptance.
Beavercreek City Schools will then verify attendance for the school identified and make payment to the parent/guardian at the end of the school year.
