[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]First, FCPS needs to be open about the costs. The budget is not available to the public in detail. For example, what is the cost of AAP busing? How do you know it is not significant? [/quote] Here is a figure for AAP bussing costs from a 2012 thread: "Bussing to the AAP center is the only measurable cost: it is about $225,000 for the county, which is not high." http://www.dcurbanmom.com/jforum/posts/list/225/256400.page#2742243 It does seem like a drop in the bucket compared to a $140,000,000 budget shortfall. I don't think the savings would justify eliminating AAP. Even for those who don't have a child in AAP, think of your property values. [/quote]
