(NC) Transportation of parochial school children living beyond a certain distance from the school is mandatory under existing laws, a law firm has reported to the School Committee of the nearby city of Cranston. The committee was to hold a special meeting December 29 to study the report, requested in con nection with a petition by parents ol St. Matthew's School children that the city supnly transportation to the school. The opinion was given by the Providence law firm of Edwards and Angell which stated that “It is our opinion that it is legal for your committee to grant this re quest and that inasmuch as you now furnish transportation for cer tain public school pupils you are required by law to furnish similar rights and privileges to the pupils of St. Matthew's.” The school committee had sought the advice of the law firm after a similar but briefer report had been given by City Solicitor Richard F. Canning. Objectors to the petition who appeared at a School Committee meeting in November included the Rev. Frank H. Snell, pastor of Phil lips Memorial Baptist Church and president of the Cranston Minis ters Association. The law firm's opinion was in direct contrast to the ministers’ association position. They said that numerous fam ilies have exercised their privilege to send their children to other pri vate schools and have assumed the financial responibility. including transportation. “This has been the traditional American approach to the question of the public and the private school.” In the law firm's opinion, an swers to specific questions by the school board included: 1) Transportation must be fur nished for parochial school pupils even though a public school is available within the one-mile lim it of the pupil's home. 2) A bus route should be estab lished to accommodate parochial school children where none exists at present. 3) Transportation should be pro vided without respect to parish lines. 4) Any reimbursement .made if the municipal bus is not used should be made to parents. insurance, too Your Farm Bureau representative is a specialist in auto insurance.
