Posted

April 2 is the deadline by which the Malverne school district must receive all bus transportation applications for district students attending nonpublic schools for the 2012-2013 school year.

Please be advised that new applications must be submitted even if you are currently receiving transportation services. Transportation shall be provided for all students attending grades kindergarten through eight, who live more than two miles from the school they legally attend and for all students attending grades 9 through 12 who live more than three miles from the school they legally attend. Transportation will also be provided for each student up to a distance of 15 miles.

Applications for bus transportation are available in the office of the assistant superintendent for district operations, at 301 Wicks Lane. Applications are also available on the district website, www.malverne.k12.ny.us, under the Programs & Services tab. For additional information regarding transportation for nonpublic school students living within the district, please contact the transportation office at (516) 887-6408.
