This morning I was listening to the end of Montana Morning, a news show on KGVO, and heard some news tidbits on busing our children to school.
Missoula County Public Schools is busing 4,000 kids to school each morning! And this is out of an enrollment of about double that number (Sorry, I don't have the enrollment numbers in front of me at this time).
So -- we still have 5 schools that could be reopened. Which MCPS will stubbornly and I believe corruptly, will not open. The schools are: Emma Dickinson, Prescott, Mt. Jumbo, Whittier, and Jefferson.
One of these schools, Prescott, is being used by a private school - being leased to Missoula International School. So -- MCPS sends two to three hundred students to Washington Middle School out of the Rattlesnake Valley but allows a private school to use our much needed public school. Like I said, CORRUPT!
Again, busing 4,000 kids per day to school in Missoula, Montana. Unconscionable.
Missoula School Watchdog will try to get the enrollment numbers for this post at some point soon.
Thank you for reading Missoula School Watchdog!
