[quote=Anonymous]It's definitely not just one parent. I have personally heard from several other families that support the idea and imagine there are others. For whatever reason, there seems to be a fear of speaking up and out in this community, that given the attacks on said individual, may be justified. I'd hope we can get past the dislike for the messenger, hear the message, and give credit to the fact that she has put in a lot of effort to get the ball rolling on this. From my understanding, the ask was for administrative support (i.e. getting the kids from the bus inside the school). AFTER it was learned that some schools also assist with the cost, that was thrown out as an option as well, particularly because an aid would need to be hired. Nor was the shuttle limited to Wards 6,7,and 8. Those were just the first parents to try to formally get it started, and believed to be the most impacted. Ideally, I would hope it could be an option for any student who needs it, regardless of ward. I really don't get the hostility on either side. Be for the shuttle, be against the shuttle, but act like adults ...This whole thread makes the LAMB "community" look like a disgusting sham! If we don't get it together, both "sides" will lose as this move still has to be approved, when we all have the potential to win!
