The guideline further states that local boards of education may adopt lesser distances. The Monroe Township Board of Education has established the following distances for students to be eligible for transportation: Note: Distance is measured from the curb in front of the student's residence, via the shortest route along public roadways or walkways, to the nearest public entrance of the school the student attends.
