Transportation of school children

1.

The commissioner of education shall have power in any such central school district to require the payment by the district of such expense of transportation of school children to and from the schools they legally attend within the district as in his judgment such transportation is required because of the remoteness of the school to the pupil or for the promotion of the best interests of such children and the same shall be a charge upon the district.

2.

In any part of the city school district of the city of Syracuse for which transportation of school children is not provided and which the board of education of such district shall have designated as an area presenting a danger or hazard to school children walking to and from school, such board may provide transportation for such school children to and from the school they legally attend within the district and the cost of such transportation shall be a charge upon the district.
