TRANSPORTATION OFFICE

The Hopewell Valley Regional Transportation Department is responsible for the safe and efficient transportation of three thousand students to six schools within the district during the regular school year. Transportation within the district's 60-square-mile sending area is conducted by district vehicles and private bus companies.

***The last date to make bus changes, and have them be effective for the first day of school is Friday Aug 18, 2023. Requests received after this date can have up to a three week delay. Remember, alternate transportation requests do not carry over from year to year. Students are entitled to one seat, on one bus, morning and afternoon.***

In accordance with state law, N.J.S.A. 18A:39-1, all public elementary school students (grades K-8) who live more than two miles from their school and all public secondary school students (grades 9-12) who live more than two-and-a-half miles from their school are entitled to transportation. These students are said to live "remote from school." Whenever a school district is required to provide transportation to students attending regular public school programs, students attending nonpublic schools who meet those distance requirements may also be entitled to transportation services. In addition, any student classified with special needs who either meets these distance requirements or for whom transportation is required in the student’s Individual Education Plan must be transported
