[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Well this should help diversify Yorktown. [/quote]

Not if they move Rosslyn to WL.[/quote]

What makes you think that could happen?[/quote]

WL has spaces with Ed center. [b]Save on busing. [/b][/quote]

Really? Isn't Rosslyn far enough away that the kids will be on a bus anyway? Kids in Lyon Park get a bus to W-L.

([b]I think high school students should be taking public transportation, but I will be surprised if APS ever goes for that)[/b][/quote]

It's a sloth-paced process; but they are at least in the room for this conversation.  It takes a lot of work with the County; but ART buses are now offering free fare for at least some students.  METRO already offers discounted fares for students.  It's not enough to demonstrate the potential of students using public transit because the bus routes are not convenient for getting to and from school or school activities, either geographically or schedule-wise.  But it's a potential start in the right direction.[/quote]
