[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]THANK YOU FCPS! Pick up at 8:10 is so much better than 6:10am![/quote]

My kid doesn't start school until 11:15am tomorrow.  Whats the point of a delayed opening if school already starts after 9am?[b] Lack of buses[/b]?[/quote]

Exactly, the busses all have multiple routes.  They will be driving the middle schoolers/high schoolers/early start elementary schoolers on their delayed scheduled during your kids' normal start time.  They can;t just say, okay, two hour delay for everyone who starts before 9 am.  [/quote]

[b]I'd just cancel bus service for those schools then.[/b]  Parents have to stick around anyways so watch their kids, might as well have them drive in instead of take time off work.[/quote]

Believe it or not, but some families do not have automobiles and can't transport their children to school.  I live in the Alexandria section of Fairfax County (Rt 1 corridor) with the largest collection of Title 1 schools and many of those low income families don't have cars.  [/quote]

Find a friend with a car, or take public transit as close to school as possible.[/quote]
