[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]If we can't find the money for after-school programs for middle school kids, we absolutely should get rid of TJHSST, IB, and AAP centers.  There is absolutely no justification for a magnet HS or these "extras" if we can't cover the basics for middle school kids.  [/quote]

At a minimum we should get rid of busses for choice programs like AAP Centers and TJ.[/quote]

Good lord- your kid didn’t get in, we get it, but this is getting boring as a retort at this point.  Think of something new. Maybe cutting all the coaches, or central office staff![/quote]

You post this same thing anytime anyone proposes getting rid of busses for AAP. Most schools offer AAP and most families keep their kids at their base schools. If they choose to send their kids to another school (just like if they sent them to language immersion or one of the arts schools), they should provide transportation. I get providing bussing for schools that don't offer LLIV, but if it's a choice, you should provide your own transportation.

- Mom who has had two kids go through the LLIV program and are doing great in middle school AAP (at our base school btw).[/quote]
