The school director and school board remain in denial on this and are wrong, wrong, wrong.

It is one of the many different solutions necessary to better ensure the safety of our school children. However, I maintain that equal opportunity transportation for all will provide the greatest benefit in reducing the risks of danger our kids are facing daily. Further, with the myriad of sporting opportunities found in this town, our children do not lack the resources to achieve physical fitness.
