[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Isn't this an MCPS-wide thing, not an individual school thing, so shouldn't there be information out from Central Office by now on this?  Schools can't decide on their own what times the buses run, can they?[/quote]

The buses would run at the same times they run on regular school days. That's one of the points of the transition day, to get a practice day for the buses.[/quote]

Note that wasn’t a point as the buses have always been practicing the routes in the days before school began and the Thursday transition half day also included bus service just like a regular school day.[/quote]

What Thursday transition half-day?  We have definitely never had that before at our elementary school.[/quote]

Previously the transition day was just for MS and HS. Which made sense because they were entering bigger schools, transition classes throughout the day, maybe walking or getting on the bus alone, etc.

Now they’ve added the K and the 3rd graders at the couple of 3-5 schools. Mostly because they ditched the K orientation day in Spring because it required the current K students to be out of the building, plus well it was a regular school day for everyone else.

Most people I know have no idea why this needed to become a full day and why it needed to move to Monday.[/quote]

Oh it also was for new students.  So like anyone who had moved into the district or transferred.[/quote]
