More problems for Jefferson County's busing plan

Add another lawsuit to the problems confronting Jefferson County’s extreme ideas about busing.

This lawsuit was triggered by another parent who didn’t want his child travelling an hour, one way, to a school much farther away from home than the closest available school.

There has to be a more child-friendly way to do this than making five year olds start the school day already exhausted from an hour ride in a bus, every day. Talk about killing off a love of learning before it ever really gets going! I wonder why a suit hasn't charged these long bus rides as child abuse.
