Pupil Transportation

Kentucky Administrative Regulations

Published: 6/12/2024 1:25 PM

Laws passed by the Kentucky General Assembly set the overall framework, but sometimes they need more detail. Kentucky Administrative Regulations (KAR) are regulations created by different state agencies to explain exactly how those laws will be followed. This is particularly helpful for pupil transportation, where specific regulations ensure student safety.
