[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]There's a bit of a misrepresentation here:[b] bussing in the way it is expressed here (unintentionally, no doubt) does not occur in MCPS.[/b] The kids from the low income housing area are entitled to bus service because of their distance from BCMS. This service would be available to any child regardless of income who lives that distance or further away. There is no program of corrective busing in MoCo. Sometimes school zones are gerrymandered as a corrective action, but just as many zones have been manipulated to create schools drawing artificially affluent populations.[/quote] There actually is busing in MCPS. Here are the boundaries for Briggs Chaney MS: http://gis.mcpsmd.org/ServiceAreaMaps/BriggsChaneyMS.pdf But I don't know who is getting "bused" to the school, and who is just plain getting bused (in the sense of taking the bus to school). Is everybody who doesn't live in the top blob getting "bused"?[/quote]
