Instructions for Summer Transportation Contracts (Form TCS)

1.     Separate contracts must be awarded for each of the three different types of summer programs: programs for students with disabilities under Section 4408 of the Education Law; district-operated programs for students without disabilities; and BOCES-operated programs for students without disabilities.
 
2.     If your district has already awarded a contract which includes more than one of the above programs, you must send us a copy of that contract, on which you must note the total anticipated cost for each program separately.
 
3.     The cost of transportation to a BOCES-operated summer program for students without disabilities is not aidable. The cost for a district-operated program is aidable.
 
4.     The cost of summer transportation for students with disabilities is aided through the STAC system. Such contract costs should be accounted for in the Special Aid Fund.
 
5.     A regular school year contract may not include transportation provided during July and August. Separate contracts are required for summer transportation.
