[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I rode the TJ bus (from another school) in my day. You realize that those students goingto TJ who are being first bused to McLean have a really long commutte and would otherwise be going to mclean and using their bus services, right>?[/quote] Oh, I meant to add, the TJ kids probably already feel like second class citizens being made to wait, etc., at McLean, if that makes you feel better. I bussed through two separate high schools near McLean (although this was years ago), we sat in a cluster on the floor, while all the kids went to school around us, and we waited, for our bus to arrive. It never occured to me they could have a place for us to exist while we waited for the bus. [/quote] There is no scenario where TJ students feel like “second-class citizens.” Their school gets a disproportionate amount of FCPS attention and resources and the school was fully renovated a few years ago. Having said that, it really doesn’t bother me in the slightest if they get picked up at McLean. I guess they could explore doing a pick-up at the Langley Shopping Center off Chain Bridge instead (Potomac School, for example, does a pick-up there). [/quote]
