Included in the "cut list" is this:
But have no fear! Superintendent Weast has just ordered 59 new buses to be delivered next summer! So next year's order of new buses is already on its way.
MCPS students will have the new buses they need for the start of the FY11 school year!
So what are the "23 buses" at $250,000 that Superintendent Weast would cut from the FY11 budget? Would those be buses for the FY12 school year?
Note: School buses cost on average between $70,000 and $98,000 depending on the size and functions of the bus. What would Superintendent Weast's "cut" of $250,000 relate to for 23 buses?
The cost of 23 new buses would be more like $1.8 million.
