[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]How about the option of privatizing buses, or the county creating bus stops at each school, so that FCPS no longer has to foot the bill for buses. ES, MS, HS can be at the same times, no crazy bus schedules. Kids that can walk, walk. Kids whose parents want to pay for the year can pay (I can't imagine it would be that much, seeing as though there are so many people that would use it), and other kids can use public transport.

Has anyone delved into the cost savings/benefit of this?![/quote]

What public transportation?

Our school has all children officially take the bus because they could not find a crossing guard.  If you want more walkers, you have to pay for more crossing guards.  [/quote]

I forgot about sidewalks.  If you want students to walk there have to be sidewalks too.  Our ES is an island for most of the houses nearby- sidewalks would help quite a bit.  Same for the MS and HS.  Both are within 2 miles and would be walkable if there were sidewalks.[/quote]
