Private School/Nonpublic Registration

Education Law 912 requires each of the school districts in New York State to provide resident students who attend nonpublic schools with all of the same health and welfare services available to students who attend the public schools of the district.  Queensbury district residents who attend nonpublic/private schools are asked to register with Queensbury and may then apply for services provided by the district (textbooks, busing and other services).
