Indiana. I think school corporation is just a synonym for school district.

I don't have real good knowledge of specific policies for busing. My *impression* from the rural school (again, 30 years ago) was that the kids in the country (unincorporated areas since it's all rural compared to a large city) all went to one elementary. The kids in the small town went to three different elementary schools based on location in town. All of the special needs were handled at one elementary school. There was only one public school for 7-8 which was physically adjacent to the one public high school so after grade 6 everyone was bused to the same location. I spent most of my school years walking.
