[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]If they want to consider bussing for those affected, why don't they do what they do for TJ kids.  Have the kids meet at a central location and everyone gets on the bus from there.  Where I am, there is a pick up at Cunningham Park and Freedom Hill.  I realize for some, even this would be difficult.  But maybe families can work together and form a carpool.  [/quote]

As you indicate that would still be challenging but if they go that route let's hope they have the intelligence to realize in most cases a stop that remains in boundary (intersection of specific streets, local park, etc.) will be closer than a school based site as these students are generally on the edge of a border.  At a minimum they need to promise families they can select a pickup spot anywhere within the boundary.  In December they indicated that was a possibility if bus space available.  Seems like if they don't provide direct transportation they need to have families choosing to stay at their current school specify their spot and plan accordingly. [/quote]
