[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The May presentation by the consultants refers to transportation times at pp. 22, 30-31, 33, 37, 41-42, 53, and 58.

That’s a lot of references for something being discounted as largely irrelevant by self-interested posters here. [/quote]

And those references did nothing to impact the last two scenarios.  [/quote]

Is that a good thing or a flaw?  It doesn’t sound like it’s good to acknowledge relevant considerations expressly referred to in an official School Board policy and then ignore them.  [/quote]
Until they produce a tangible benefit for reducing transportation times — like a budget neutral fix to school start times, this pillar of 8130 is never going to gain much traction. Most families with long bus rides knowingly bought into the situation because they wanted to attend certain pyramids. Therefore, they will fight back against any change while those in favor of reducing transportation times are advocating to move other peoples’ kids with no quantifiable gain.

“Studies say…” isn’t going to sway the county at large. [/quote]
