Pupil transportation aid
Under current law, a school district or an operator of a charter school that provides transportation to and from a school receives a state aid payment for transportation. The amount of the aid payment depends on the number of pupils transported and the distance of each pupil's residence from the school. The bill increases aid payments for pupils who reside more than 12 miles from the school from $375 per pupil to $400 per pupil, beginning in the 2023-24 school year.
For further information see the state and local fiscal estimate, which will be printed as an appendix to this bill.
The people of the state of Wisconsin, represented in senate and assembly, do enact as follows:
Section 1. 121.58 (2) (a) 4. of the statutes is amended to read:
121.58 (2) (a) 4. For each pupil so transported whose residence is more than 12 miles from the school attended, $300 $375 per school year in the 2016-17 school year and $365 for the 2020-21 2022-23 school year. The amount for each school year thereafter is $375 $400.
