The board of education of a school district may, pursuant to rules adopted by it, permit the use of school buses owned, leased, or contracted by the school district for the purpose of transporting an adult with a disability who is a client of the Division of Developmental Disabilities in the Department of Human Services and who is continuing the person's education and training following graduation from secondary school. Transportation pursuant to this section will be limited to space availability on vehicles engaged in the transportation of school-age pupils along established routes. The board shall require that the individual transported, or the person's parent or guardian, pay all or part of any costs incurred by the district in providing the transportation, including but not limited to, the costs of fuel, driver salaries, insurance, and depreciation.
