Transfiguration School, Tarrytown, NY 10591

Transfiguration School

SCHOOL IS CLOSED MONDAY, MAY 14TH

***IMPORTANT NOTICE***

As you know, the Lower Hudson Council of School Superintendents has published a position paper recommending the state funding of private school, out-of-district transportation, or a reduction of mileage limits from 15 to 5 miles.

If this proposal becomes a reality, the state of New York will once again be unfairly targeting those parents who are merely attempting to provide their children with expanded opportunities and a great education.

A Citizen's Advisory Council chaired by Yorktown Assemblyman Terrence Murphy

and Father Vaillancourt has been formed to protect transportation to private and parochial students. This Advisory Council will convene at John f. Kennedy Catholic High School on Monday, April 16^th at 7p.m. in the Auditorium to discuss lobbying efforts and talking points for a trip to Albany. That trip will take place on Wednesday, April 18^th at which time members of the Council will meet with Sens. Little and Martins of the Mandate Relief Council.

Information will be posted and disseminated as it becomes available. To join the Citizen's Advisory Council, please e-mail Sen. Greg Ball's Director of Legislative Affairs Krista Gobins with your name and contact information at kgobins@nysenate.gov .

Transfiguration School, a vibrant part of Transfiguration Parish, was founded in 1949 by the Carmelite Fathers. Their mission—to provide students with the highest-quality academic and spiritual education—has become our tradition. The belief that academic excellence in an environment of faith produces competent, caring Christians, continues to be fundamental to our success. Today, Transfiguration School is regarded as one of Westchester's finest elementary schools
