[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]And it's been looked at, studied, and you've been told NO to moving HS any later already (beyond the 20 minutes its been moved).  When my teens do this I tell them to stop badgering me.  You're supposedly an adult, so please, move along.[/quote]

I’ve lived in MoCo for 2 years and my children are 8 and under.  Reopen a debate 10 years later and it is an almost entirely new set of families having the discussion.  I have certainly not been told “no.”[/quote]

So the new Board of Education members and new Superintendent will look at the same data and come up with a different result?  Sure.  Or, you could acknowledge it's a losing issue, and that not everyone wants the same thing you do[/quote]

New time, new people.  With your attitude nothing would ever change ever.[/quote]

New poster here. What has changed? Okay, so the board is different, but are the facts different?

Did the supply of busses in MCPS triple?

Did the number of bus drivers increase?

Did the budget get exponentially bigger?

Are there fewer low-income families relying on siblings to provide after school care?

Read the thread. We’ve elaborated on what has/will soon change.[/quote]
