More details to this question:
I am a senior in high school and I want to move in with my brother from my parent’s house. I still want to go to my school because I have gone there since kindergarten. Is there any way the school has to transport me from my brothers to school every day?

Ask the school if they will authorize it.

No, because it is your decision to move off the bus route.

Only if you are there legally (by court order or a legal document) and it's within the school district.

If you are outside of the school's district, no, it does not have an obligation to transport you. And you may not be allowed to continue to go there. It depends on state law.

No, they have no obligation to you. You will have to attend within the district where your brother lives.

Not if your brother's house is outside the school zone.
