[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Notice in the message that if the bus doesn't reach your kid, it will be squarely the fault of county and private residents. [/quote] That's fair. Schools don't plow the streets.[/quote] The County's priorities are not the same as MCPS. County just wants to ensure car access and therefore plows roads in a rough fashion. Sidewalks are an afterthought. They don't care at all about prioritizing the snow removal on school bus routes, school bus stops, and access around school properties. Therefore... it actually is the job of the Superintendent to make a deal with the County when there's a snow emergency, so that somewhere down the list of priorities, there's a spot for school bus routes, and all things school related. So yes, MCPS has some responsibility here and cannot blame this all on residents and the county not shoveling to school-safe standards, since those are not the standards used by anyone except MCPS.
