[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The fact that people on this thread can’t understand there are two budgets (and the county one cuts MSAS) despite several posts explaining it is discouraging.[/quote]

I posted budgets.  This is a joint county and schools program.  MS letter confirming joint program - closes at 4:30

Carson at the beginning of the year had 3 days of the late bus-T,W, TH.  Like all schools there were block A and then B.  Calendar for Carson now has 4 days of transportation.

This is a county only program NOT at school sites, open when school is closed, school in session oprn until 5:30 with a light meal.  FCPS buses on school days?
County also runs prek sites some for very young children

My post above.  See program budget https://www.fcps.edu/sites/default/files/media/pdf/FY-2025-Program-Budget.pdf
p 162 - FCPS runs the MS after school programs, staff to structure, and the county contributes.  The late bus cost is on a separate item under transportation.  That category also has transporation for: AAP, elementary magnets, TJ.  Shave off magnet $, extra AAP bus, some IB extras and FCPS has enough for normal MS after school programs.

Odd that FCPS doesn't split late bus between middle and high school.  No one knows true cost of immersion be it extra staff or gen ed staffing flipped to immersion creating higher class size ratios for other classes. [/quote]
