Challenges to Area Bus Transportation

Mark Lauria, Executive Director of the New York State Association of Independent Schools (NYSAIS) shared a letter with Westchester Heads of Schools about the recent rally at the Mamaroneck School Board meeting, protesting the district’s proposed change in school busing policies. Read the letter here. We encourage all our families to pay attention to this and other similar proposals as they arise, as these changes would have significant impact on the transportation options available to Hackley families.
