[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]If everyone is completely fine with the 16+ mile bus rides in Langley district, they should be more than fine bussing in some high FARM apartment complexes from Herndon to Langley high school.  [/quote]

Do you think the FARMs kids want to be bused to Langley? I went to a school were kids were bused and the bused kids were barely seen at the school. They did not aprticipate in extra curriculars, they didn’t have the time. There were no real oppertunities to socialize outside of school because they had an hour commute. I suspect that most of those kids woud have prefered to stay at their base school. We talk about bussing as a solution when there is evidence that it is not.

I am not going to pretend that I have the solution but the kids who you are talking about might prefer to stay in a school where their friends are located, they have oppertunities to participate in other activities, and were they don’t feel ike they are a social experiment of some sort.
