Circular for parents regarding withdrawal of DTC Bus Services
Dear Parents,
It has been possible for the School to provide regular bus service for transportation of children to and from school in the past, for nearly a decade with the help of the services of the Delhi Transport Corporation (DTC). The present Contract with DTC expires on the 31st of March, 2010. The advance for the month of April, 2010 was sent along with the request for renewal of the contract on 10 th March, 2010. Regretfully, the payment was not accepted by the Corporation, and we were verbally informed that the Contract shall not be renewed for our School.
We also understand, unofficially, that the transport facility is being withdrawn by the DTC to our School and a few others, while for the rest of the Schools the facility shall be continued.
We are prompted to share our anxiety with the parents, regarding this development which would affect nearly fifteen hundred children of our school and cause untold misery to students and parents in the ensuing summer weeks. In the meantime we request you to kindly make alternate arrangements for the transportation of your child to and from school, for the new academic session, 1 st April, 2010 onwards.
While we are taking this serious matter up directly with the DTC as well as with other Authorities, we would like to keep you informed of the further developments. We hope that our joint efforts would bear fruit, and that the DTC shall agree to continue the Bus Service without interruption.
Hoping for your full support and cooperation in the matter.
With my best regards,

Thanks a ton for putting up this notice. Please keep us posted on further developments.
Though there is a change of guard at the parents rep, please keep this blog running. This is a wonderful platform, dont let it go waste.
We all need to work together to make MIS a better place for our kids.
Don't worry- so long as people keep writing in and participating.
There will be changes of guards every year, but all it takes is an email to send the information here and it will get put up for all to see.
