[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]So is the expectation of folks that live close to Blair that folks in TK be bussed past Blair to Northwood so they can walk to school? I don't get it[/quote]

Blair and Northwood are like 5 minutes from each other.[/quote]

So your answer is yes?[/quote]

I think they should assign as many walkers to each school as can be reasonably accommodated by that school's capacity. If that means some bus rides are five minutes longer, I don't see a problem.[/quote]

That would also mean splitting up elementary and middle schools to different high schools, which a lot of us don't like.  You can't expect the whole school system to bend itself to your personal convenience.[/quote]

It's not about personal convenience. It's about following the policy and practicing fiscal responsibility. [/quote]

You’re talking about sticking it to people in and around Takoma Park.  It was not seen as fiscally responsible to build a new high school there where one has long been needed.  Okay, so let’s bus the kids further too since their needs are not high priority?[/quote]
