The proposed bill mandates that any private school receiving state funding must provide transportation for students who are enrolled and reside within thirty-five miles of the school. This requirement is outlined in a new section added to the Arkansas Code, specifically under Title 6, Chapter 20, Subchapter 1, designated as section 6-20-108.

Furthermore, the bill stipulates that the cost of transportation must be fully covered by the private school itself. This legislation aims to ensure that students attending private schools with state funding have access to necessary transportation services, thereby promoting equitable access to education.
