Establishes Special Education Transportation Task Force.
This bill creates a 18-member Special Education Transportation Task Force to study and improve transportation for students with special needs. The task force, including education officials, disability advocates, school staff, and parents, will review best practices in other states, current policies, and safety concerns like medical emergencies during transport. It will focus on recommendations for staff training, equipment access, communication with families, and safety protocols. The task force must submit its final report to the Governor and Legislature within 12 months of forming. This bill directly affects students receiving special education services, their families, school districts, and transportation staff in New Jersey.
