On Monday, Oct. 28, at approximately 9 a.m., a bus carrying students to Edward J. Russell Elementary School was involved in an accident on Route 52. Nine students were transported to Garnet Medical Center in Middletown with minor injuries. All other students continued to EJR to be checked by the nurses and have been released to their parents/guardians.

We would like to thank the Pine Bush Volunteer Ambulance Corp, the Montgomery Ambulance, the Shawangunk Valley Ambulance Corp, the Town of Crawford Police Department, Town of Montgomery Police Department, the New York State Police Department, and the Pine Bush Fire Department for their swift response and compassionate care for our students.
