Transportation

The New Jersey Catholic Conference supports the opportunity for parents to have a school transportation system responsive to the needs of all students.

State laws and appropriations should reflect the cost of transportation for all students within statutory mileage limits.

We also support the need for nonpublic school students to be included in all courtesy (hazardous) busing initiatives for those students who live under the mileage limits for their school. (Two miles for elementary students and 2 ½ miles for secondary students.)
