[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]why doesn't DCPS consider actual school buses for MacArthur if WMATA isn't going to help? Most school districts across the nation rely on actual school buses. Somehow in DC we have been conditioned to think that's an impossibility. It's not. If we can have school buses for special programs (like the autism program) they can do it for a new high school located in a difficult spot to reach, if they want it to be a success. It can be a temporary fix until the WMATA starts playing nice.[/quote]

Have you seen how awful the busses are this year?  My kid rides an osse bus and it takes them 2.5 hours to get home. They can’t handle the amount of kids they bus now. [/quote]
Then you kid needs to go to a school closer to home. Or you need to drive them. Or you need to move. Or carpool with other families. How can you allow a commute like that for your child and not come up with a better solution? [/quote]

Well I have a job so I can’t just go and pick my kid up.  And just fyi. The school is 6 miles away. So I’m not sure how much closer I could move.  But thanks for trying to blame a parent rather than where the blame should actually be. [/quote]

If you're ok with your child spending 2.5 hours a day to get home from school, then I'm not sure what to tell you.[/quote]
