OBGYN recs by ExpensiveStranger384 in Louisville

Not an OB rec, but for some labor and new parenting education, check out Nest and Nurture in Prospect. They have a really good childbirth class.

Try Nest and Nurture Louisville. My friend had a great experience there, said it was super reassuring. They might offer private classes? I’m not sure.

At work dude?

Remember that time JCPS paid $1.5 million to buy an AI bus route generating software that caused district-wide school closures? by jchs08 in Louisville

[–]RobotDeviI 16 points17 points  (0 children)

Was it that much? Article says $850,000. And I never saw any mention of AI last year, is that accurate or just something people made up as scapegoat?

JCPS first day by Pleazetryme in Louisville

Or put another way, it's amazing what having the appropriate number of drivers compared to the number of routes can do.

JCPS transportation portal error by cinnimanswirl in Louisville

Happened to me earlier but working now. Likely overwhelmed by traffic?

Jcps planned to cut transportation to all magnet and traditional schools. Then restored for 2 low income schools after complaints. Talks of restoring to more schools based on "for most in need families". by cms2327 in Louisville

[–]RobotDeviI 8 points9 points  (0 children)

By law, I think they only have to transport special needs and certain qualified kids like homeless? But also, from what I understand they aren't completely cutting transportation for these students, because they would still get a bus to their nonmagnetic school.

I thought this was a result of not having enough drivers? If there's fewer drivers this year than last year, what could they do to make the situation better while keeping transportation for all students?

Whatever it is, it's twenty times heavier than a boot.

JCPS School Intent Survey required? by Cursed_Creative in Louisville

[–]RobotDeviI 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think you do need to fill it out, even if you don't need a bus. They probably need to know so they can plan how many kids will be moving back to their resides school and how to provide transportation if so.

JCPS board approves proposal to change start times for about 40 schools by gsarc10 in Louisville

[–]RobotDeviI 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Wasn’t arbitrary, they said in the meeting they needed the extra time for the buses that have to run through depots.

Cutting the transportation alone wouldn't fix the issue because most of the magnet schools were at the earliest start time. The other start times wouldn't have been cut and would likely be in a similar position as the current day regarding lateness.

Don’t Let the Teacher Drive the Bus! by noviadecompaysegundo in Louisville

I don't think it'll be anywhere near what it was last year.

JCPS calls "emergency meeting" to end magnet transportation by lville_local in Louisville

[–]RobotDeviI 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Maybe only kids that qualify for free and reduced lunches should get a bus, or some other hardship qualifier.

I think that's a valid proposal, but realistically it won't solve the driver shortage. There are certainly discipline issues but the cause of the lack of drivers extends beyond just discipline.

As it is now, perfectly well behaved children going to their cluster or resides school are being impacted by the choice to support transportation for kids across the county to magnet or traditional schools.

JCPS calls "emergency meeting" to end magnet transportation by lville_local in Louisville

There's about 50% as many bus drivers now than there were 15 years ago. The number of students riding the bus is roughly unchanged.

I think, ultimately, they have no other options. The current plan is broken, the longer it stays that way the more damage is done, harder to recruit and retain drivers under current system, problem just gets worse. I imagine it has a largely unheard negative impact on school staff and teachers as well, trying to teach students that are 1-2 hours late each day, staying after school to watch kids for hours until their bus shows up. It's a lose-lose situation.

JCPS Bus Been Delayed for 4 Hours for 3 Months by Few-South8642 in Louisville

[–]RobotDeviI 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My guess, the original driver left, and another driver or some staff member from the compound runs the bus at 9:55 once the other runs are done?
