So Tell Me - Did I Miss Something???

[Henry]

I don't see any reason to remove either of you, so am leaving you on

I am also in favor of keeping our buses and drivers. Merger or no merger. That is a separate issue.  Growing up taking the bus to school, vocational, band, and for sports; our bus drivers were always there supporting us and making a long ride fun when needed and getting us home safely.  I thank them for their committment to the kids.

I vote to keep the buses.

I have spoken to a lot of people, teachers and children and we ABSOLUTELY need to keep our buses. The drivers know our kids. The drivers are willing to make neccessary accomodations for the kids. They offer to take the community to playoff games as far as Barrre. The pro's are endless. Not to mention if we needed to evacuate Fairfax, we have the means. The bus issue goes beyond picking up and taking home kids. This can not happen. This is a very very bad idea for Fairfax. Maybe a good idea in bigger cities but not here. I hope people do their research before they vote and remember it is not always just about the mighty dollar. In this case it is about the kids and the community. I vote NO and would even protest this one.

from post #11 page 1:

By State Law, the School Board is required to explore consolidation in many areas including transportation.

[Thor]

So, using the reasonable man theory.... one could say that the criteria has been met. Other options have been thought of, explored, researched and released to the public for consideration. No further action is required of the school board. We keep our buses and our drivers.
