[quote=Anonymous][quote]I have a feeling a huge percentage of FCPS high school students are far enough away from their schools to qualify for a bus ride. If boundaries could be adjusted in certain areas so that a poorer student rode a few miles further to a wealthier high school I'm sure FCPS could make that happen. They wouldn't even have to be islands. Nobody is talking about busing students across the county (except for Great Falls parents near the Loudoun border - they are already bused across the county to Langley and none of them seem to mind).

Boundaries should be realistic.  And, there is a big difference between a ten minute bus ride and a thirty minute bus ride.  There is also expense in additional costs to transportation.

I agree that it is ridiculous that kids on the Loudoun line are being bused to Langley--but, right now, Langley is underserved and Herndon is not.  Where would you send the Herndon kids?  Which kids would you put into Langley?  Those at Lee?

I'd love to see your suggestions.  [/quote]
