    SUBSCRIPTION BUSING
    Lacey Township School District's Transportation Policy offers subscription busing to and from school to students who attend Lacey Township School District in grades 6 through 12, and who are not eligible for free transportation because the students live within the designated walking zone. If you have any questions, please call the Transportation office at (609) 971-2000 extension 1043.

    APPLICATION TO RECEIVE SUBSCRIPTION BUSING
    The application process for 2023-24 is open.  An application is required for each student in grades 6 through 12 residing in the designated walking zone ONLY. Applications received after the deadline will be considered late with no guarantee that a seat will be available.  Application deadline is August 15, 2023.

All students participating in the subscription busing program are subject to all rules and regulations regarding bus discipline and safety procedures as specified in district policies and regulations.  Bus pickup and drop off times as well as location will be available through the Parent Portal once it is opened for the school year.
