Welcome to Nyack Public Schools Transportation Office. I would like to take this opportunity to share with you some information regarding the District’s Transportation Policies and Guidelines
All students in grades K-8, living more than one (1.0) mile from school, and all students in grades 9-12, living more than 1.5 miles from school, will be transported.
All pick-up and drop-off times are approximated. Please have your child/children at their assigned stop 10 minutes prior to the pick-up time indicated on their bus card.
The District uses universal bus stops which best serve the District as a whole. Any request to change a stop location must be on the Request for Bus Stop Change Form found on this website.
Our buses travel throughout the entire District and it is possible for students to be on the bus as much as forty-five minutes.
Parents/guardians must meet kindergarten students at their assigned bus stop. The student will be brought back to their school building if they are not met.
Any transportation change must be requested in writing.
This change, if approved, can take up to 1 one week to 30 days to take effect.
Riding the bus is a privilege and we ask parents/guardians to discuss with their children how to properly behave on the bus.
All District buses have video cameras.
The District is committed to the safety and well-being of your children. If you have any questions or concerns, please e-mail or call.
School bus stops and pick up times are established by the Transportation Dept. Students should be at their appropriate bus stops approximately 10 minutes before their scheduled pick-up time. Please note that inorder to run timely routes, and in compliance with the New York State Commissioner of Education ruling that it is the parent’s responsibility to get their child(ren) safely to and from their bus stop. Students in Kindergarten must be met up by a parent/guardian.
If there is an emergency, accident or incident on the school bus parents will be notified in a timely fashion by either the transportation office, the bus company or the school’s main office according to the district’s safety and security protocols.
