This report discusses the following plans for pupil transportation in the state of Kentucky during COVID-19: (1) Pupil Transportation; (2) Mitigation Strategies; and (3) Employee Safety Considerations. Additional resources, a sample survey, a sample employee health assessment form, and a school bus seating chart are included.
