Toms River of $3.3 million for the 2017-18 school year just days before that school year starts. The Brick Township School District would lose nearly $2.2 million under the deal, according to information distributed by state legislators last week. The district had been planning to send as many as 100 school buses; district Superintendent David Healy said bus drivers had volunteered their time to drive buses that the district hoped would be loaded with parents, students and other community members on the day after the Toms River schools let out for the summer.
