School Transportation services are provided exclusively for the benefit and safety of the student population and are to be used only in support of programs authorized by and under the auspices of the School Board.

Section 10-186 of the Connecticut General Statutes, furnish by transportation or otherwise, school accommodations so that each child over five and under twenty-one years of age who resides within the jurisdiction of the Board and is not a graduate of high school or vocational school (or who is not otherwise legally excluded from school) may attend the public schools maintained in the Board pursuant to Section 10-220 of the Connecticut General Statutes.

Walking Distance, means the linear measure of a prescribed or authorized pedestrian route between the pupil’s residence and his/her school from a point at the curb or edge of a public road or highway nearest the pupil’s residence to the nearest allowable paved access of the school.

The purpose to this petition is to support the well being of our children's safety. Our children are being denied transportation due to this policy put in order by your Board of Education.

We have heard countless innocent children get injured or even killed due this policy. I have seen buses with only two students and dozens of five to 10 yr old children walking home in the heat, cold, rain, snow, and even walking on roads with zero paved sidewalks. There has to be a way to over see this policy.

Let's get our children safe home and to school! They are today's miracle and our future! Please sign this petition to help more children who can't walk home alone at just 5 yrs thru 10 yrs old.

Please sign we are their voices....
