A student eligible for services under the McKinney-Vento Act can receive transportation to and from the current residence to the school of origin or home school for the current academic school year.

NOTE: Lexington City School System's Transportation Department determines the mode of transportation (ex. bus or vendor). Transportation to after school activities, before and after school care and any locations other than the current residence must first be approved by transportation.
