The primary variable that will affect this will be the availability of buses (and drivers).  If PISD has spare buses that could be utilized without compromising other routes or organizational events, this “may” be available as an option in the future.  Today, however, those living within the 2-mile area are ineligible for school transportation.

Given that there are still too many unknown variables, it is unlikely this will change.  The State discourages this practice by providing NO funding for transporting students who live within two miles of their school.  PISD has attempted to absorb this cost in the past, but the uncertainty of future funding restricts this and other areas of PISD.
