Open Forum Comments § Transportation: § Questions regarding travel distances and travel time. § Transportation questions requesting busing for grandfathered students. § If transportation was granted for one year for all grandfathered students, costs would exceed $140, 000 for that year alone. § Siblings: § Questions regarding grandfathering siblings § Allowing younger siblings to continue to be grandfathered at the same campus with older siblings prolongs the move for those siblings and could be extended for years to come depending on the number of siblings. § Student Acclimation: § Requested information about equivalent curriculum, course selection and extracurricular tryouts. § Future rezoning impacts on students. § Future Growth: § Actively seeking E. S. site(s) in this area. § Growth is constantly changing and appropriate planning is ongoing.
