TRANSPORTATION TO NON-PUBLIC SCHOOLS

State Education Law sets April 1st as the deadline for written applications from parents who wish their children to be transported to non-public schools outside the district. New applications are required each year. State law also states that public schools must transport pupils to non-public schools no farther than 15 miles from the student’s home. Families who move into the district after the April 1st deadline may file requests within 30 days of their move into the district. Requests may be filed and questions directed to the Superintendent.

DRIVING TO SCHOOL

Students who drive to school must register with the Security Monitor. Permits will be issued when registration is completed. Students must park in the designated parking lot and the vehicle must display the parking tag. Students will not remove vehicles from the school parking area until the end of the day unless permissions granted from the high school office.

Students must obey all traffic laws and be respectful of requests from faculty and staff to insure the safety of all persons.

Failure to comply with the above rules will result in immediate suspension of the student's permit. Parking and driving privileges will be denied.
