  • Who is eligible for busing?
    In most cases, if a student’s resident school district provides busing for public school students then the student is eligible for busing to and from Saint John Vianney. A student must live more than 2 ½ miles from SJV to be considered for transportation from your township. If the resident school district does not provide busing, it might provide aid in lieu, AIL, (see below for explanation) for their students attending private/parochial school. Students who qualify with these criteria are ELIGIBLE for busing. It does not mean they are GUARANTEED busing from their towns. THIS SCHOOL YEAR, A LARGE NUMBER OF ROUTES FOR VARIOUS TOWNS WERE NOT BID ON. THE FREEHOLD REGIONAL DISTRICT AND THE MONMOUTH REGIONAL DISTRICT WERE AFFECTED BY THIS AND WERE OFFERED AIDE IN LIEU INSTEAD OF BUSING. SJV DOES OFFER PRIVATE BUSING TO THESE AREAS (SEE “PRIVATE BUSING” BELOW) IF NEEDED.
  • Does SJV provide private busing?
    Yes. SJV has busing that currently runs through several areas where busing is not provided through the resident districts. The current charge for the 2023-2024 school year is $1200 which is payable in two installments. The due dates for the next school year, 2024-2025, are June 15, 2024, and March 1, 2025. Many of our privately bussed students receive aide in lieu if they live within 20 miles of SJV. This is paid from the resident school district usually in two installments during the school year.
  • What is aide in lieu?
    Aide in lieu is payment made directly to the parent/guardian of a student who is eligible but not provided busing from their resident district. The district will then provide aid in the form of payment to compensate your transportation costs or a portion thereof. To receive this, you must live more than 2 1/2 miles but less than 20 miles from your door to Saint John Vianney High School. If you are unsure of this distance, we recommend that you use a map site such as Google and verify with your resident district. ** If your town does not provide busing for their public school then you might not be eligible for aide in lieu. Parents and students can then decide to use that aide in lieu payment for reimbursement of their SJV private busing payment or towards their own transportation. In the past years, the aide in lieu amount was $1000. This arrangement is between the parent/guardian and the district. Again, consideration for reimbursement must meet specific guidelines as per your resident sending district.
  • When are bus routes available?
    Bus routes are planned by your township after all B6T transportation forms (which you will fill out at registration time) are submitted by us. SJV sends the forms to townships for verification. Bus routes are designed and then put out to bid over the summer. You should know by early August if your district has secured busing for your area. Communication from your district will be passed along in various ways depending on the town either by phone call, email, letter, or website.
  • Who can I contact for more information?
    For busing questions and more information, please feel free to contact Sue Deatherage, Transportation Coordinator at 732-739-0800 ext. 288, or email deatherage@sjvhs.com.
