[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote]The buses never run to schedule the first week of school anyway, so the schedule is only a very general guideline of when to expect the bus. [/quote]

They usually run test runs before school starts.  As PPs have said, there are lots of reasons that the bus schedules aren't ready--including the enrollment, hiring new bus drivers, etc.  I understand the frustration, etc.  I also was always sure to make sure that my kids were  present at the "pre-season" open houses.  Mine are grown now, but going to the school to meet the teacher and see who was in your class, etc. was a major part of the "back to school".  I understand that might not suit every family, but it is an important part of the process--and, usually, a fun part for the kids.

We took advantage of the drop in vacation rental prices and missed the open houses.  It's definitely a trade off.  You either get 2 weeks (at the reduced price) at a non crowded beach OR you go to the open house.  We chose the beach.  But we did miss out on the open houses for the kids.  We did always attend the back to school night as parents. [/quote]
