[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Eh. You chose an option school, you get what you get for transportation. My kid is at an option school. Transportation would be infinitely more convenient if she attended her neighborhood school. So long as APS assigned you a bus route that gets your kid to school,  I do not see how  this is their problem. [/quote]
Yes, there is a bus route, but it doesn't have anything to do with where we live.  You really think it's appropriate to assign kids to any bus stop in Arlington and then shrug when kids can't get to school?

I did research on the location of hub bus stops and was told they'd assign us to the one near our house.  No one ever said that you can randomly be assigned to any hub stop in Arlington.  That's ridiculous. The APS transportation site even says you can request to change hub bus stops and they will make the change.  Then APS transportation came up with a new policy [i]this week[/i] that they'd no longer make changes for the first two weeks.  Totally arbitrary. The notion that you get what you get doesn't appear anywhere.  It's not like I'm asking for my kid to be picked up at my house.  I'm 100% okay going to the hub stop, just the one within walking distance.  APS admits that they made a mistake.  They're just refusing to fix because they made up a policy that says they don't have to do so [/quote]
