My son's yeshiva just said we won't get busing when yeshiva starts this week. We live over two miles from the school and he is in third grade. I thought the deal was that we would qualify for busing. Did anything change?

My son still does not have busing. They yeshiva blames it on the Board of Ed. Does anyone else still have this problem?

No way. Just curious, why aren't askanim and Agudas Yisroel busy here as they are in Rockland county? Both situations are very similar.



are there any groups with interest in this staying on the table?



The mosdos?



what do they gain by it being unresolved



Not sure what you mean on the table.
The mosdos would prefer bussing paid for by taxes as opposed to having to deal with private bussing.
Non taxpayers (renters) also gain by voting yes.



I was replying to yelped



except when they buy a house they will regret it.

What could be resolved
as long as the funding formula stays the same the situation is impossible
As powerful as some askanim think they are they aren;t the NJEA, who represents the biggest voting block in the state
and they will never allow vouchers or a change in the funding formula

I would like to know how much Lakewood is spending per public school student when you remove the private school busing and special ed numbers from the school budget.
Then compare that with other NJ districts.

They should just have private bussing, and tack it on to the tuition.
