[quote=Anonymous]How do you get around the practical problem that private school kids can live all over the place? Do you have satellite stops? Do you have a requirement that a neighborhood needs x number of kids from a certain school to get bus service? Would this change from year to year? If this is for traffic congestion, should the county foot the bill instead of MCPS? I have two concerns. First, private school parents can go elsewhere, but they should not impose a burden or extra cost on public schools for their choices. Bussing a kid from Olney or Poolsville to Georgetown Prep seems like a burden to me. Second, didn't we just hear about how HS kids have to wake up early because we don't have enough busses to move school start times back? How does this proposal impact HS school start times? [/quote]
