Welcome to the Private or Parochial School registration for Transportation
Dear Parents / Guardians:  
Effective immediately, we will begin accepting applications for private school transportation for the 2020-2021 school year ahead of the April 1st deadline (as per NYS Law).

In an effort to streamline the process we will no longer be mailing paper applications to each household.

We are now using electronic filing for transportation applications. Your application must be completed and submitted before April 1, 2020. No late applications will be accepted. It is our recommendation to apply for Transportation even if there is a chance you will not need it. You can cancel the request for transportation if needed at a later date.  Keep in mind that an individual form needs to be completed for each child attending a private or parochial school.  If you decide to change the school of attendance after completing the application you must notify the Sachem Transportation Department before the April 1st deadline, otherwise it will be processed as a late application.


If this is your child’s first time applying for transportation to a Private or Parochial School, you will have to fill out the forms on the link below and bring them to Central Registration Office at 51 School Street Lake Ronkonkoma. The office is in the Samoset Middle School in the “A” entrance.

2020-21 Private School Registration Packet

If your child is currently receiving a Sachem CSD provided bus to school and your address has not changed please click on this link below and fill out the form.  If your address has changed, contact the transportation department for clarification before the April 1st deadline. An e-mail generated receipt will be sent to you stating that your child is registered for transportation. This is the only correspondence you will receive until the last week in August when the parent portal becomes available.
