Reply To: Lakewood school board State monitor (and Five Towns)

The law requires the State to provide busing to private school children living over two miles from the school. If one school finishes at 7 PM while another school finishes at 6 PM and a third finishes at 5 PM, the State is still obligated under the law to provide them busing. The State has no authority under the law to tell private schools what their hours are.
