Transportation

McKinney-Vento act (which mandates transportation for children who are homeless): we budgeted $134,000 last year and spent $356,407...this year we're budgeting $200,000, but everyone acknowledges that this is underfunded.
(We'll probably be moving money later. This question was mine.)

Biancheria asks about the new charter school: are we figuring them in? We think we can use what we have, but they haven't given us the information we need to figure this out yet.
We just found out that SoKA will have five more days (than WPS does); Seven Hills Charter has 10 more, which is an additional $38,000.
Hennessey says that SoKA doesn't necessarily even have a location yet; if they go where expected, it doesn't line up with any of our current transportation routes.
Biancheria wants to know when we'll know. Allen says admin will forward as we get it.
