2023-2024 Request for Non-Public School Transportation
North Greenbush Common School District contracts with the Wynantskill Union Free School District for transportation of our students to private and parochial schools. Private School Transportation Request Forms are mailed to parents or guardians of a child residing within the North Greenbush Common School District in January. New York State Education Law § 3635(2) requires parents or guardians of a child residing within the North Greenbush Common School District to submit a written request to the district, for transportation to a non-public school, by
April 1, or when not residing in the district on April 1, within 30 days after establishing residency within the district. The purpose of this deadline is to enable the school district to budget funds and make necessary arrangements to provide reasonable and economical transportation to students. A late request is one filed by a parent or guardian after the April 1st deadline or by a new resident more than 30 days after moving into the district. Late requests shall be granted only where a reasonable explanation is provided for the delay and there is no additional cost to the District. The authority to decide which reasons are acceptable rests with the Board of Education. The parent or guardian of a student who is denied transportation to a non-public school may make an appeal to the Commissioner of Education if a satisfactory resolution cannot be reached with the Superintendent or the Board of Education. Please note that the Non-Public School Transportation Request Form must be completed every school year in order to provide efficient service to students.
