[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Get a candidate to run for school board on this platform.  I truly think it's the only thing that will work.  Start writing your va state legislatures to remove the requirement to provide bus service every day the schools are open.  If we could decouple the bus issues from the evaluation of whether to open school or not.  There should be a "condition 7: due to weather conditions fcps are open but bussing will not be available."[/quote]

Ha! Those of you who advocate no bussing on those days are going to be in for a shock when you get stuck in a Kiss'n Ride line wrapping around the school for a couple miles and end up taking a 2-hour round trip to drop off your child. That's of course if you're lucky enough not to get into an accident, made likely by the combination of bad weather and drivers going crazy because of the back-ups around the school. 
And that's assuming your school is far, far from a main road. A back-up around our HS has the potential to completely block one of the main thoroughfares into DC.[/quote]
