[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I happened to be reading the AAP board this morning, because I have a child entering the program and like to get new information. I read a post from someone who spends her time following buses for miles in order to count students who are in a program with which she has no relationship (and don't say "taxes"--I don't follow special ed buses or see if the FARMS kid eat their free lunches--sometimes you just have to realize not every dollar impacts you directly).

I have to assume this person either is supposed to be working or has *something* better to do around the house, but instead she's policing school buses--again, those allocated for a program in which her family does not take part. If this is not a waste, what is?[/quote]

You would be wrong, on every count.  First, I am a man, and a dad, whose child attends LLIV at the base school.  No need for this child to be bused somewhere else, as [b]the base school provides AAP - a mediocre program with which I do have a relationship.[/b]  Second, as I mentioned in a separate thread (one you probably started), I was not able to pass this bus as we were on back roads throughout Great Falls and I was headed in the same direction.  I knew it was the AAP bus because it started in our neighborhood and I know the one child who got on there.  I wasn't "creepily stalking" anybody, just trying to get to work and stuck behind a bus for much of the way.

So really, you should stop assuming things about posters you know nothing about, in order to further your [b]own[/b] agenda.  I'm happy to spend my tax dollars on programs which benefit children with special needs.  Center school AAP is not one of them.[/quote]

Are you calling AAP mediocre based on your impression of the LLIV program your child attends at your base school? Maybe the program at the center is better, and that is why the two kids you saw on the bus are willing to ride for miles there.[/quote]
