FOX45 News: Howard County students get buses back after yearlong battle trib.al/J2GTjMA
Grateful for the current decision to restore school bus service to most of the areas in Howard County that lost it this year! We’re still advocating that HCPSS find ways to expand service sooner to struggling families.
Thousands of students in Howard County are getting their school buses back after the district cut bus service for about 3,500 children ahead of the 2023-2024 school year.

#CareNotCuts Remember the shelter based staff are vital to helping families navigate CONFUSING school #transportation rights.
In previous years there was a spreadsheet for schools to look up staff names by shelter - but now they can only get 1 name per region. #WheresMyBus🚍
In less than three months, 100s of 1000s of students could lose critical programs funded with expiring funds. These programs are not a "wish list," they’re critical to meeting students’ needs. City leaders must act to #RestoreEdPrograms in this year’s budget!

We watched a woman with baby in a stroller & a preschooler on a tricycle maneuver into Centennial Lane to get around this blockade of ice now 4 days after snowfall. Howard County needs to avoid blocking school paths when clearing snow. This is in the walk zone for 3 schools.
