Can people living in Toms River and Jackson tell me if they get busing for their children to Lakewood? Pay privately, through the township, drive themselves....

Thanks so much!

They are towns, not neighborhoods.

From what I understand, people who live outside of Lakewood who send their children to school in Lakewood do not receive any bus service and need to drive their children to school (or carpool if that is available).

What two schools told me is that Jackson residents get aid in lieu of transportation, which is a payment from Jackson to Lakewood board of Ed for transporting those kids to school.

You need your school to assist you in processing the paperwork.

At least that was the case last year and this year. Naturally we have no idea how it's gonna play out in the coming years, what with all the busing mess there's been.

Of course you have to be lucky to get your route picked up by the actual operator, but that pertains to Lakewood families as well. This year some Lakewood kids were assigned to routes but no bus company bid on them, so in the end they had busing only on paper.

In one of my kids schools, there was a Jackson family whose kids had morning transportation by bus, and in the afternoon older one did but the younger one had to be carpooled. (Different dismissal times)
