[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Is this summer school where the routes will be reconfigured in the fall?  Or an 11-month program?  I know people in our NPP that choose to do their own transportation for medical reasons and I include AC bus in my kid's IEP because believe it or not your kid can be on a non-AC bus in the summer for an hour+ but I would be surprised if this exists in Moco.   I see VA jurisdictions transporting in small vans or cars to schools in MD but that's probably just due to the number of kids; the same thing happens for DC kids at our school--small cars work better than busses in the city and there's just a few of them.  I would call SPecial Education Transportation and ask if this is already a thing.[/quote]

It’s a 10 month program. All of the buses (from various counties in MD) are huge, regular school buses. I wish they had small vans because that would be better for her sensory issues. It would also make sense because there’s only 5 (very noisy) kids on the bus. Last year there were only 3. My daughter is very quiet and has a lot of sensory issues particularly with noise and being bounced around in the car or bus. When I drive I have to be very slow on bumpy side roads or over speed bumps. A large bus is 100x worse. The other kids have loud stims and yell a lot. It’s very hard for her.[/quote]
