The early dismissal is good if there is a parent at home at 2:30, but for other families it will mean afterschool care that wasn’t needed before or more hours of afterschool care for the child and since school starts earlier it will be a longer day for those kids.

Wonder how they did it without the 45 minute interval that our bus routes seem to need.

Re: carpools. Could the FAVE PTA or admin send out a notice to families who will have students at FAVE next year asking those who are interested in carpooling to submit their addresses and contact info? Then redistribute the compiled information to those who submitted it, so that families can get in touch with one another. It might help increase the amount of carpooling, which would be good in all sorts of ways.
