Nothing like a bus for a fast-news Sunday

I don't like to make several posts in one day because someone who checks in may not realize there is new material past the first new post they see. Assuming they care.

This will be my third post of today. I just couldn't miss a teachable moment when I see it.

Again from "The Gradebook", we have this link:
Fewer buses demand more cooperation - St. Petersburg Times

This comment stands out:

"What's troubling is that officials were caught off guard by how the changes would affect so many families. That shows weak planning and communication from the start."

I can't help but wonder if the HCPS administration is as surprised about this fact as a student who has been given inflated grades and then meets the real world.
