[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'm talking about city buses. Kinda like what DC does. Middle schoolers and high schoolers would have no problem with this. I would hesitate with elementary, but other options are available. With all of the people complaining about budgets and start times, this seems to be something that could be addressed. Plus, with projections of more and more students attending FCPS, the bussing situation is going to get worse!**[/quote]
