According to Alfajri's conclusion (2012: 90), namely "for parents school transportation services make parents not worry anymore and lighten the burden on parents". This is because most parents are busy working so it is difficult to take and pick up their children from school. The role of special school services is to provide services to all school members, especially students to optimize the educational process in schools.
