[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Everyone should watch the debate that just happened and share it everywhere.  Ultimately only high school students will have transportation.  Some like Karl Frisch said nothing.  Many of these board members don't care about students - this discussion makes that clear. [/quote]

Elementary students shouldn't have been grandfathered in, it's totally unnecessary. They make friends very easily. It's totally unnecessary. As for middle schoolers, I think they should have let current 7th graders do 8th at their MS, but I get that there is an overcrowding issue if they do that. But elementary schoolers will adapt. Yes, even 6th graders.[/quote]

They are letting 7th grade students do 8th grade at their current middle schools next year, just without transportation.

It probably would be better if they had not given these kids that option, since it’s an option that clearly favors the wealthier with the means of arranging transportation. It’s an inequitable result, courtesy of the likes of Karl Frisch and Robyn Lady. Next year they should be replaced with normal human beings who actually care about kids and families. [/quote]
