[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][url][quote=Anonymous]Does this mean that we will have enough busses to scrap the awful start time survey options they've sent out???[/quote]

I thought this is being done TO make the new times work[/quote]

This won't make a big enough dent.

The issue with the busses: Before HSs started going later, the HS/MSs would go at an early time and the ESs would go at a later time. I have to imagine that most of the busses would be used to do an early run, then a late run. (Given there's 7 grades in elem and 6 grades in MS/HS, that makes sense - about half your population for each bus "shift").

But then they talked about moving HS start times later and complained it would increase bus costs dramatically. Which didn't make any sense until you realized that was because they moved the HS start times later but didn't move anyone else's start times. So they had to add a bunch of buses to accomodate the fact that now everyone is traveling at the same time, instead of in non-overlapping shifts

With the survey that went out, they're clearly trying to get back to having 2 different bus "shifts", each for half the population. That probably *will* save tons of money, but just getting rid of AAP transportation is a drop in the bucket compared to the whole county's worth of busing.[/quote]
