And we also like to avoid making any bell changes. It is very enter connected complicated developing Transportation System and obviously bell times have a huge impact on our ability to efficiently use limited buses. We recognize that changing bell times is disruptive for the entire community, including families not using transportation and families using special Education Services and so we wanted to avoid any recommendation that included bell changes. We also wanted to minimize the number of schools and the number of riders that would be impacted. And we wanted to make sure that we could align our process with the enrollment cycle so that family woulds have the information well in advance and on time for that could inform their decisions with regard to applications for next year.

1314 school year making any changes beyond this in order to get to the 25 buses.

In deeper conversations with the School Communities and working with the superintendents to think about what adjustments might be needed in the future. In terms of 1314, it would be these are the only changes that we are recommending for the 1314 school year. So, im work curious, if you can provide us not right now, but some just sort of a snapshot and data, i feel like i have lost, sort of, we had a lot of data around this when we were doing the student assignment.

Part of the in prior years, we werent able to follow up as directly with the students because we did not know who was riding the bus but this year we have that information and so we are planning to send letters and work directly with the families who will be impacted and that is one of the reasons that we want to do it before the enrollment fair so that the children will have the opportunity and the families will have the opportunity to consider information before the enrollment cycle begin and so that is part of the work that we have to do and kind of implementing these changes. Commissioner norton .

I mean, i guess, what information do we have about Students Preferences whether to stay on campus or go somewhere else and capacity are we building any capacity as far as after school .

So, that work is something that is currently, there are discussions about and we are planning to go deeper with that work this year. Commissioner . You are on. Thank you. I wanted to, i dont have the report in front of me so i will have to look at it when i return and probably have follow up questions. But i appreciate what i heard about the goals that we have, ....
