[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Hmm, well, if you look at it, the AAP student is unable to access a service at his/her base school. So the student is provided transportation to receive the service at a center.

What "service" or program would the general education student be seeking at another school? None really. The general education student is still able to receive their general education at the school which happens to also be a center for AAP students. [/quote]

OP here.  Isn't it true that an AAP student at a base school is still able to receive LLIV services? [/quote]

Not all base schools have Local Level IV services.[/quote]

Very few don't anymore.  [/quote]

According to the FCPS website, 37 elementary schools have Local Level IV services and 25 elementary schools have Level IV Center services.  There are 139 elementary schools in FCPS.  By my math, there are 77 elementary schools without Local Level IV or Level IV Center services.[/quote]

It's really amusing to read some of these deliberately obtuse replies.  As you know, the point is:  [b]if your base school offers LLIV, there should be no need to bus your child to a center.  [/b]  Those parents should have to drive their children to the center, if that's where they choose to send them.  [/quote]

[b]There is disparity among Local Level IV programs.[/b]

If you would like to see the statistics documenting the disparity, I invite you to peruse the documents provided to the School Board as a follow-up to the July 2013 work session:

http://www.fcps.edu/schlbd/docs/sb%20follow%20up%20responses/fy%202014/SBfollow-up14-2-3-4.pdf

See the chart on page 3 to see how many Center-eligible students are attending the Local Level IV program.

As you know from prior years budget testimony (especially in the FY 2012 budget), the total cost of busing students to Centers that have Local Level IV as an option is less than $500,000.[/quote]
