[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It’s too expensive. Parents should be required to drive their children in this circumstance.

My kids are among those impacted by the boundary changes. We most certainly did not choose to attend another school and my kids should be able to stay at their current schools AND receive transportation. [/quote]

I don't understand this - you bought the house you did knowing it was zoned to Fairfax County Public Schools. There is never a guarantee that your house will stay zoned to the house it is currently zoned to. You bought your house with that understanding. Now the schools have changed, that means your children have to change schools. If you *choose* to keep them in their old school, then it is your responsibility to transport them. Similar to if you *choose* to send them to a language immersion or arts school in the county. Personally, I think TJ and AAP centers should also be treated as a choice school, but Fairfax County has this completely inequitable "advanced academics" program that they insist on providing transportation for.[/quote]
