[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The magnets are an incredible waste of time, resources, upper administration staff, and terrible for the environment as kids are bussed all over this traffic infested county. I say this as a parent of 2 of 3 magnet kids. Right now is not the time to invest in this program anymore. [/quote] If you're worried about the effect of buses on the environment, it doesn't make sense to focus on the small number of kids in magnet programs. You should focus on 1. the large number of kids who live in walking distance but get bus service because it's not safe to walk/bike 2. the large number of kids who get driven by their parents instead of taking the bus or walking/biking 3. the large number of kids who could take RideOn/Metrobus but get bus service[/quote]
