Every mile counts

Transportation aid starts with your allowable costs

Vermont pays transportation grants equal to 50% of each district's allowable to-and-from-school costs, reduced proportionally when statewide claims exceed the indexed cap. Districts that send students out of district to attend school can also apply for extraordinary transportation aid.

Vermont student transportation questions

How does Vermont fund school transportation?

Vermont pays each district a transportation grant equal to 50% of its allowable to-and-from-school costs. When statewide claims exceed the indexed cap, every grant is reduced proportionally. See the Vermont FAQ for the details and sources.

Are Vermont districts required to provide transportation?

No. The Agency of Education describes transportation as a discretionary but essential service. School boards may provide total or partial transportation when they find it reasonable and necessary for students to attend school.

Is Vermont considering changes to school transportation?

The Agency of Education's December 2025 report under Act 73 is preliminary. It says the state might contemplate requiring transportation for elementary students who live 1 mi from school and secondary students who live 2 mi away, with exceptions for hazardous walking conditions.

Can a small rural district in Vermont run on BusRight?

Yes. BusRight is built for districts that run their own buses, including small rural fleets. Drivers get turn-by-turn navigation on a tablet and families see the bus in the Parent App. When the router seat is empty, BusRight Solutions can build and run routes alongside your team.

“BusRight has been a game-changer for safety and communication. With substitute drivers, it’s tough when they don’t know a route, now they have clear directions, and we can track and monitor buses in real time.”

Barb Schwamman
Superintendent and Director of District and School Support - Osage Community School

“BusRight has raised the bar with driver tablets, parent communications, and easy route design, and they're always willing to listen and deliver on our needs. I'm proud to partner with BusRight.”

Marc Medina
President of NYAPT, Region 1 Director of NAPT, Supervisor of Transportation Farmingdale Union Free School District

“A parent called, worried her child hadn't gotten off the bus. Thanks to Safety Pass, I could immediately confirm the student had never scanned on and quickly found him safe at an after-school program. Without it, we'd have been making radio calls across 50+ buses.”

Devin O'Bryan
Transportation Director - Nelson County School District

“BusRight simplifies the whole process of moving students safely. Drivers get clear, turn-by-turn directions, and parents can see their child’s bus location in real time. When we’re short on drivers, we can even merge routes on the spot, it’s that easy”

Brandon Caldwell
Transportation Director - Madison School District

"BusRight has saved us $989,000 in the first year. I can't think of another tool in the district that has had such a profound impact on student safety, while also strengthening the financial position of the school."

Gregory Mott
Superintendent - Poughkeepsie City School District
