A BILL TO BE ENTITLED
AN ACT TO REQUIRE THE ALAMANCE COUNTY SCHOOL ADMINISTRATIVE UNIT TO PICK UP AND DISCHARGE PUPILS AT DAY CARE.
The General Assembly of North Carolina enacts:
Section 1.  G.S. 115C-244(c) reads as rewritten:
"(c)	Any pupil enrolled in any school, or the parent or guardian of  any such pupil, or the person standing in loco parentis to such pupil, may apply to the principal of such school for transportation of such pupil to and from such school by school bus for the regularly organized school day. Upon application, the principal shall assign a pupil to a school bus if the pupil is entitled to school bus transportation under this Article and the rules of the State Board of Education. If the parent, guardian, or the person standing in loco parentis to such pupil applies to be picked up or discharged at a day care center within the pupil's school district, the principal shall assign that pupil to a bus which has the designated day care on its regularly scheduled route including turnaround zone.  Such assignment shall be made by the principal so as to provide for the orderly, safe and efficient transportation of pupils to such school and so as to promote the orderly and efficient administration of the school and the health, safety and general welfare of the pupils to be so transported. Assignments of pupils and employees to school buses may be changed by the principal of the school as he may from time to time find proper for the safe and efficient transportation of such pupils and employees."
Section 2.  This act applies only to the Alamance County School Administrative Unit.
Section 3.  This act is effective when it becomes law and applies beginning with the 1997-98 school year.
