A family just moved within CASD and they have a 6 year old daughter that attends school. The parents were informed by the Transportation Department that the school bus WILL NOT transport her child due to the "Adopted Board Policy #810", which states the following, State law permits schools to have a walking distance of 2 miles for secondary school students and 1 ½ miles for elementary schools.
Our District's School Board of Directors has reduced these distances for our students. As indicated in Board Policy #810, the walking distance for secondary students is 1 ½ miles and 1 mile for elementary students. The State laws has the walking distance for secondary students to 2 miles and 1 1/2 for elementary students.
We, the undersigned, call on the Chambersburg Area School District and The Transportation Department to change or alter the current policy, which WILL NOT allow children/students who live within walking distance to ride the school bus.
