Transportation

A Variety of Options Are Available

Students commute to The Harvey School from many communities and towns throughout the region. A variety of transportation options are available to help our students get to and from school each day, such as: local school district and private busing, the Metro-North train, and carpooling. Contact the Admissions Team or our logistics coordinator, John DePalma at jdepalma@harveyschool.org with specific transportation questions.

More information can be found below regarding specific transportation.

School District Busing

Transportation for day students is often provided by local school districts. If your district is not listed below, we recommend contacting your school district’s transportation coordinator to find out what the policy is on busing to private or independent schools.

Towns and villages within a 15-mile driving distance of The Harvey School that regularly provide busing to public school students are required to also provide busing to Harvey.

The following school districts provide bus transportation to The Harvey School:

All school district buses arrive at Harvey in time for the start of the school day, between 7:40 a.m. and 8:00 a.m. Buses return to Harvey in time for dismissal at 4:45 p.m.

Commuting by Train

Students in Westchester, Bronx, and Manhattan who reside in school districts that do not provide school bus transportation may also commute to Harvey by train. The Metro-North Harlem Line stops at Katonah from Grand Central Station and offers a reduced student fare.

The Harvey School utilizes Chappaqua Transportation to offer students a convenient shuttle service to and from the Katonah Train Station.

Students typically arrive in the morning on the 7:33 a.m. train into Katonah and arrive on campus by 7:55 a.m. In the afternoon, the shuttle departs Harvey at 5:00 p.m. in time for students to catch the 5:22 p.m. train home.
