[quote=Anonymous]I grew up in a township district that had an optional, elective bussing program: inner city kids could go to suburban schools with capacity, can suburban kids could go to specialty schools downtown, IF they elected. A Small taxpayer funded bus provided curbside pickups and drop offs, for the 40+ minute drive. Sadly, I never saw the inner city kids’ parents at anything, even their own kids’ basketball, football games, track meets, or band concerts. Most had to catch the 2:50pm bus back or they were stuck with 90 minutes of city busses. No community feeling there. It was a school within a school as everyone hung out “with their own people.” Large Chinese and Vietnamese population too. I also heard the N word on a daily basis, from the blacks. This was in the 1990a. Maybe no one says that word any longer. [/quote]
