FOR AN ACT ENTITLED, An Act to require the approval of the resident school district if a student who open enrolls is transported within the student's resident district by the receiving district.
BE IT ENACTED BY THE LEGISLATURE OF THE STATE OF SOUTH DAKOTA:
    Section 1. That § 13-28-45 be amended to read as follows:
    13-28-45. The parent or guardian of a student who has been accepted for transfer is responsible for transporting the student to school in the receiving district without reimbursement. Either the district of residence or the receiving district may provide transportation to students approved for transfer. No receiving school district may enter the district of residence of students accepted for transfer into that school district to provide transportation to those students unless the transportation is approved by the school boards in both the receiving school district and the resident school district, and any such transportation agreement between school districts shall be approved annually. The provisions of § 13-29-4 do not apply when transporting students enrolled under the provisions of §§ 13-28-40 to 13-28-47.

The receiving district may charge a reasonable fee if the student elects to use the transportation services offered by the receiving district.
