[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Why not end all the busing and using the money saved to improve all programs throughout the county. There is higher demand and greater ability to do the gifted programs than kids have access to. If more slots need to be opened up, why not open them up at kids home schools? Why force kids to waste 2 hours a day and bus them around the county just for access? [/quote] Which "busing" are you referring to?[/quote] I believe they are referring to the busing involved in getting to magnet schools. [/quote] Oh. As I recall, the study said that the immersion and selective-application special programs cost an additional about $6 million, including busing. Which would be a lot if I won it in the lottery, but it's not a lot if you're trying to improve all programs throughout the county.[/quote]
