[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I see the great wisdom now in our walking field trip to a local church “pumpkin patch” in town![/quote]

the Cox Farm fieldtrip is really miserable. As is the apple picking field trip.

People get stuck on these as “traditions” instead of realizing that kids would have just as much fun taking the Metro bus to the zoo. [/quote]

Ha! My 9th grader at Jackson-Reed did just that today.  She's sending me pics and having a blast. [/quote]

Honestly I don't know which one I would be more nervous about.  Lot of violence on Metro lately.  Someone's kid could easily get attacked by random teen hoodlums or a mentally ill person[/quote]

Kids take the metro every day, twice a day.[/quote]

Kids also take school buses everyday…not sure what your point is? 44 kindergartners with 4 adults is not the same as some teens or younger kids with their parents[/quote]

DCPS kids don’t take school buses. They take Metro.

YOUR kids don’t take school buses. You know that DCPS and OSSE have to legally provide school bus service to some students, right? [/quote]

OSSE buses are government employees and not contractors.  They generally don't do field trips unless special needs students are the primary children on the bus. [/quote]

That’s not what the PP was talking about. PP believed that students only get to school via Metro not school bus. [/quote]

About 3200 (out of 90k?) get to school using school buses. Any other student on a bus is on a metro bus.
