Brick School Board Secures Federal Grant for Electric Bus Initiative

Overview: The Brick School Board meeting was marked by discussions about the district’s plans to transition to electric school buses. The board announced that it had secured an additional $22.76 million grant from the federal EPA, supplementing an earlier $5 million grant for the initiative. This new funding, dubbed “electric buses proposal 2.0,” aims to alleviate previous concerns about infrastructure costs and pave the way for a potential shift from diesel to electric buses. Despite the promising financial outlook, the board decided to defer any vote on the matter.
