I just drove by Wootton HS on the way to Downtown Crown. It took a whole 10 minutes. My day is ruined and the wheels on my car might fall off now. How could anyone deal with this daily. There is no justice in this world!

This is simply a lie. it doesn’t take 10 minutes when it’s not rush hour. There is no way you did it in 10 at this time unless you were breaking the law in every possible way.[/quote]

Mapquest at 5:43 said 11 minutes,[/quote]

I live walkable to Wootton-I just did waze and it says 18 minutes. hmmm. [/quote]

And bussing is not driving your own car. It has many stops and detours to pick up  the neighborhood kids which adds more time. We’re less than 10 min driving distance from our school but the bus comes at 45 min before school start time to pick up.

Oh I agree with you 100%. My response was for the pp who is saying she got to Crown in 10 minutes from Wootton by car during this time which is…impossible. That’s the only point I was trying to make. I am absolutely aware that it will take a considerably longer time when the kids are on the bus. It’s absurd that 
H is even an option. [/quote]

If kids who can normally walk to school now have to wake up 30–45 minutes earlier to catch a bus, that’s a significant burden especially since high schoolers already start their days so early.
[/quote]

So, everyone should be a 5-10 minute walk from high school because riding a bus is an unreasonable burden?[/quote]
Not everyone, but for the current walkers it is additional burden[/quote]

It's not really a "burden" if it's normal for other kids. This is just another example of Wootton parents believing they deserve special treatment.[/quote]

Which other schools that walkers are converted to bussers in this boundary study??? [/quote]

The trolls here are very unreasonable anyway. No other schools have walkers converted to bussers, let alone all walkers of the school . Yet they claim Wootton wants special treatment. We’re getting “special treatment”, as only our school gets closed. [/quote]

You act like riding a bus is some horrible offense, completely oblivious to all the kids who currently do it.[/quote]

You act like it’s no big deal to change Walker zone to bus zone. People specifically want to be walkers. If they’re ok with bussing they would not have to buy at walk zone. Do this to any other school and see how they react.

ask the Seneca Valley / Clarksburg parents - they were incredibly upset during their boundary study - changes were made and they were very upset - few years have past and all is well - this to shall my pass[/quote]

They're still pissed.[/quote]
