The private buses keep on going even if the public busses cancel school or send them home early. At that time all children from YSV and schools that use public bussing were safe at home.
The roads were slick and had not as yet been salted.
These schools should make safer decisions when it comes to our precious chuldren
From the photo of the tire, it looks like it should have been replaced miles ago.
Drivers should slow down on that curve, especially in this kind of weather
Monsey Yid – FYI – there is no busing this week in Monsey due to legal holiday.

Monsey Yid and HS girl: There had been a provision in last year’s proposed school budget to provide transportation for the private schools during this specific week, but that budget got voted down.
