[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It could happen, it's come up before. They have also proposed eliminating busing. [/quote]

Eliminating busing is a terrible idea and would completely go against any equity argument. That proposal would be shut down immediately if equity is a measure. Also how much could it save the county to provide busing for a just a few students? [/quote]

I don't disagree, but it was proposed before. [/quote]

In the past, certain sports’ funding, and arts, music, etc., programs were also proposed for cuts, but because of community pushback none of those happened. The planetarium was also saved due to community pushback. Staff always proposes unpopular cuts every few years. [/quote]

Right it didn't happen, but anything proposed *could* happen. When you have to rely on community pushback, anything could happen. Maybe there won't be as much pushback next time, or maybe it won't work. [/quote]

FCPS could also shut down TJHSST and turn it back into a neighborhood high school. Literally any scenario is possible.

I wouldn’t worry about a three year old article. [/quote]
