[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous] Yes, but the programs themselves (and the schools in general) could be so much better without the busing. It is extremely expensive, and school districts have finite budgets. [/quote] The vast majority of busing is busing students to their home schools. Busing to special programs is only a very small component of the cost.[/quote] Right, my initial comment was not limited to special programs. There is no question that busing over 100,000 students to their home schools on a daily basis is extremely expensive for the district. That money has to come from somewhere. [/quote] So you are advocating getting rid of all bussing and having maybe 20? 40? extra cars heading to each school per bus each day to get the kids there. Its not like eliminating bussing has no negative consequences.[/quote]
