[quote=Anonymous]So I see eliminating the $100 test fee as a positive step, but transportation still remains a stumbling block for many in the populations they hope to reach most. If you are getting bused to an elementary school "depot," the student may still be a substantial distance from their house. A merit based lottery may not change/remove some of the biggest barriers. If it takes a student 90 minutes to get there each way and leaves you without the opportunity to participate in after-school activities, some may see that as more trouble than it's worth. I have heard this from several families. I'm not saying there is an easy answer, but for some, that is an easier roadblock to bypass. [/quote]
