Reports link

SameGoal includes many standard reports that administrative users can run, including several transportation reports. Special education transportation reports can be found in the Reports tab under:

• Transportation Coordination: These reports pull information from Transportation Requests and transportation coordinators can run these reports to determine which students need transportation coordination.
• SHARS Coordination: The SHARS Transportation report pulls information from IEPs and can assist with billing to receive reimbursement.
• Special Education > Administration: Transportation reports found here pull information from IEPs and can be used for general reporting purposes.
