To counteract the educational disruption caused by mobility, the McKinney-Vento Act provides students in transition with the right to continue attending the school of origin or local attendance area school (NCHE).

Wake County Public School System, in accordance with federal legislation, provides transportation to students in transition by utilizing regular bus routes and contract services.

REQUEST TRANSPORTATION: a parent/caregiver/youth can request transportation by contacting the school McKinney-Vento Liaison.

If approved, transportation is only required to be provided to and from a temporary residence and school. Any other request (ex. to and from a daycare) will need approval by the transportation department. A request should be submitted by school McKinney-Vento Liaison.
