  • Transportation | NYSTEACHS

    Under the McKinney-Vento Act and N.Y. Education Law § 3209, a student in temporary housing is entitled to transportation to their school of origin. Get resources for more information on transportation. Transporte Según la Ley McKinney-Vento y la Ley de Educación de Nueva York § 3209, un estudiante en una vivienda temporal tiene derecho a transporte a su escuela de origen. Las protecciones de transporte incluyen: Transporte a la escuela a la que asistió el estudiante la última vez que estuvo alojado permanentemente hasta 50 millas en cada sentido, o a la escuela más reciente a la que asistió, incluso si la escuela se encuentra en un distrito escolar diferente del que el estudiante está viviendo temporalmente; Transporte continuo a la misma escuela por el resto del año académico cuando el estudiante se mude a una vivienda permanente, incluso si la nueva vivienda está ubicada fuera del distrito escolar; En el estado de Nueva York, también se proporciona transporte por un año adicional después de que el estudiante se muda a una vivienda permanente si el año adicional es el último año del estudiante en el edificio de la escuela (por ejemplo, 12º grado); Si un estudiante en una vivienda temporal asiste a la escuela en el mismo distrito donde está alojado temporalmente, entonces puede obtener el mismo transporte que sus compañeros alojados permanentemente. Si los estudiantes alojados permanentemente no tienen transporte, y la falta de transporte crea una barrera para un estudiante en una vivienda temporal, entonces el distrito tiene que proporcionar transporte para superar la barrera; Transporte a actividades extracurriculares si la falta de transporte fuera una barrera para el estudiante que participa. En el estado de Nueva York, el distrito escolar donde el estudiante asiste a la escuela es el distrito responsable de proporcionar transporte. A veces, el departamento local de servicios sociales (DSS) es responsable del transporte, por ejemplo, cuando el estudiante ha sido colocado en un refugio fuera del distrito escolar y el estudiante es elegible para Asistencia de emergencia para familias. El DSS local puede cumplir con su responsabilidad solicitando al distrito escolar que proporcione el transporte y reembolsando al distrito escolar los costos.
