[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I wonder how much FCPS would save if we got rid of AAP Centers.

I'm not saying get rid of AAP, I'm saying Centers. That would significantly reduce bussing costs and reduce the number of AARTs that are required. [/quote]

This would reduce bussing but how would it reduce staff? With no centers FCPS would need to keep an AART at each school. [/quote]

AARTs at LLIV schools are part-time. Two schools can share an AART. This would reduce staff. But it would be a huge reduction in bus costs. Like in the millions.[/quote]

8 million.  Which isn’t really that much at all in a 4 billion budget, but you can nitpick the things you don’t like even if they don’t take that much money. [/quote]

You think $8 Million is not a lot of money? [/quote]

You judge the dollars spent by the value received.  This is a huge waste of 8 million dollars.  The schools would be better served by an additional teacher.  Much better served.  Or two or three additional instructional aides that can actually help in the classroom.[/quote]

Agreed, but 8$ million wouldn’t get a teacher in every school. That is 80-100 teachers.  There are way more schools than that. [/quote]
