Maybe it is just because we have too much information.
Remember the good old days when ignorance was bliss?
It appears from the public education system, parents just can't ever get it right.
Today we have two articles about the HCPS:
Try All Routes For Bus Stop Details
School bus stop, close to known sex offenders, worries Hillsborough parent
In the first article "Try All Routes For Bus Stop Details", the public just can't get it right. If the public tried to plan ahead and called earlier during the summer, they were told to wait for the mailer. Now that the mailer didn't get there, the public didn't get it right because they should have called two weeks ago: "It's two days before school," Hegarty said. "It was much easier to get through two weeks ago."
In the story "School bus stop, close to known sex offenders, worries Hillsborough parent", it is unclear about the timeline of when the parent first knew about the original bus stop site, but it appears that she knew it a while back. One could make this assumption because she became concerned when she found out that the bus site had been moved closer to the cluster of sex offenders which also includes a sex predator. Having a sex predator close to a bus stop along with the fact that it has now been publicly brought to the attention of the school system must increase liability to act, I am guessing.
According to the story, the parent had called the system to report the issue, but it wasn't until the parent contacted a reporter who then asked questions to the system did things start to be looked at. I am willing to bet that there will be no record found that the parent had contacted the District. But that is just me.
