Transportation

Buses will drop off and pick up students on N. Fullerton Avenue, in the front of the MELA building. If there is a change to your child’s usual transportation plan, please notify both your child’s teacher and the MELA Administrative Assistant by email as soon as possible (for example, if your child will be picked up by a family member, etc.).

If you do not receive confirmation that your transportation change has been received by 2:00 p.m., please contact the MELA Office at 973-509-4208 to ensure the information has been updated.

Students enrolled in the Mini-Mounties @ MELA program may qualify for transportation services through the Montclair Public Schools Transportation Department if their residence is more than two miles from MELA location or if transportation is included as a related service in their child’s Individualized Education Program (IEP).

Families will be notified by the MPS Transportation Department if their child is eligible for busing services.

All transportation-related questions, requests, or concerns should be directed to the MPS Transportation Department, 973-509-4020 ext. 50609 or ext. 50610.
