[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote]Most of the HS buses are so packed the driver won't notice. I think this is fine.[/quote]

It's not fine.  Last year our MS had a problem with parents driving their kids to bus stops and completely overcrowding the buses. School caught on and started checking --[b] if your StudentVue record didn't show you were zoned for that bus, [/b]you couldn't get on in the afternoon and your parent was called. Bus driver then knew the kids who didn't belong and refused to let them board in the morning. When they forced their way on to the bus, the bus driver refused to go and the police were called.  My kid was late for school more than once because of this nonsense.

Just have your HSer walk or drop them somewhere that is about a half mile away and they can walk the last 10 minutes.  [/quote]

What does that even mean though? It's not like MCPS assigns kids to particular bus routes. You're just supposed to pick the one that's closest to you and show up.[/quote]

At minimum, MCPS knows who gets bus service and who doesn't.[/quote]

I think they just know which general neighborhoods get bus service and which don't.[/quote]

No, they know this information for each student.[/quote]

How? Every year our ES asked parents to tell them which bus routes and stops our kids used.[/quote]
