How does a school district safely transport early childhood students?
Missouri law mandates that children under the age of 4 be transported in a child safety restraint system (210.104, RSMo); it is recommended by the National Highway and Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) that children 4 and over but under 40 pounds also be transported in a child safety restraint system. In transporting early childhood students, it is recommended that a school district follow the recommendations of NHTSA (http://www.nhtsa.dot.gov).
