My kids BH have bussing but Lakewood is having a hard time covering their bus routes because one bus company left. Many kids in Lakewood still don't have transportation. I really doubt they will bus in out-of-district kids right now.

My kids currently do not have a bus, we ware in Lakewood. Hopefully by after succos we should have one (we were told the BOE never put the route up for bidding).

I know one family who lives in jackson. I understand they are entitled to bussing but it can sometimes not happen. If it cannot be provided I believe they can be paid about $400 (maybe slightly more) a child a year to cover transportation.
