[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Who are the people on here complaining about high school kids having 20 minute bus rides?  Holy snowflakes what has society become?  [/quote]
I believe they were saying it's 20 minutes in Google maps with no stops and no traffic.  That's a 40+ minute bus ride each way, easy.  I know my kid's bus ride to Hunters Woods and to Rachel Carson were 40-45 minutes each way.  Pretty much impossible to do extracurriculars or sports if the parents aren't lucky enough to have flexibility in their work schedule to pick them up early at school on practice days instead of waiting for the bus drop off.  Can't do anything about the 6:25am bus pick up time though.[/quote]

Why is Hunter Wood kid goes to Carson?  Hunter Wood goes to Hughes.

Anyway, sending kids south of 267 to Herndon HS is madness.  The toll road crossings are jammed during rush hours. [/quote]
AAP kids from Waples Mill go out of pyramid to Hunters Woods and then to Carson for middle school.  It makes no sense.  They should use the KAA opening as a chance to address the Carson/Franklin split feeder madness and force all the AAP kids from Franklin pyramids to go to Franklin.  It only works if it's forced though, otherwise everyone will always choose the center because all the friends they've been with the past few years are also going to Carson.[/quote]

I'm so confused about why Waples Mill kids go to HW while Crossfield kids go to Navy. Wouldn't the opposite make more sense? I believe that Crossfield kids used to go to HW for AAP. Why did that change?[/quote]
