I don't think my behavior is awful, and I think I'm pretty nice. I'm just tired of paying [b]this program that we can't afford [/b]where some kids are more equal than others. It's bad enough when admissions are fair, but if it's not fair, it's unacceptable. I think most people would agree with me. [/quote]

How much more is H-B per student than other MSs/HSs?

Costs aside, there should be more fairness and transparency around the lottery/admissions.

Bump to ask again: How much more per student does APS spend for HB students? [/quote]

Budget for each school is in the annual budget book, available under Finance tab on the APS website. This stuff is not secret.

Busing costs for choice programs are hard to parse out because one bus driver may be scheduled to drive a neighborhood elementary route, then an HB route (which is middle and high school), then a middle school dismissal route, then a late bus. Its not just how many x additional buses. [/quote]

PP said we can't afford it. PP should back that statement up.
