[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My child goes to one of the most economically diverse centers with many more ELL learners and taking away the busing means those children cannot get to their center school. A lot has been done at the feeder schools to use the Young Scholars program and other paths to get more chidren from lower income families into our center and it will be such a shame to see them not there next year if the busing is cut.

FCPS will not cut buses to center schools like this.  They won't put local level IV in the feeder schools to these centers because they don't think there is a critical mass, so they will be essentially violating the requirement of providing gifted education to these kids if they eliminate bus service to centers and then don't provide local level IV.  They can get away with eliminating buses to affluent centers because they have local level IV in the feeders and so are meeting their legal requirement to provide gifted education to those kids.
