Dear Parent,
According to Pennsylvania Law, nonpublic school children are entitled to transportation to nonpublic schools as follows:
1. A district which provides transportation for resident public school students must also make identical provisions for the transportation of resident nonpublic school students.
2. Transportation for nonpublic school students must be provided to and from the nonpublic school in which the student is enrolled, even if the nonpublic school is located outside the district so long as the distance is not more than 10 miles beyond the district boundaries. (Note: This distance may be in excess of 10 miles from student's home.)
3. A district may transport children who live along hazardous routes even though the children live within walking distance of the school.
If you think you are eligible for transportation and desire it for next term please complete the Request Form below and return it to school immediately. THANK YOU.
Signed Principal
