The Board of Education meets June 8; they should make their choices public then. |

| According to today's Bethesda Gazette, Weast and the BOE are suddenly all about providing the transportation. They just love to get parents riled up. |

Nervous parents had said that changes of that sort could threaten the viability of the programs. >> Full article at http://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-dyn/content/article/2010/06/03/AR2010060302972.html |
