Early bus times for Brashear

Anonymous wrote:

"New topic: Brashear students now have to catch buses 15 minutes earlier. This is on top of the 25 minutes earlier instituted with the closing of the Liberty bridge. School start time has not changed, it is still 25 minutes earlier than before the closure of the Liberty bridge. Students, who already felt that the original starting time was too early, now have to be at their bus stops a full 40 minutes earlier than before the closing of the bridge. They will arrive at school with an extra 15 minutes to . . . do what? Does this really seem like a decision based on academic benefit?"
