"This is ridiculous! Fees for this and fees for that! The list of fees for public schools is getting longer everyday!"
"We live in Oakbrook.In the morning, we are not allowed to turn left onto Dixie Farm and must go down to Friendswood Hastings, making our route 2 miles from our home, yet the district measures the distance TO the school only.Also, with all of the construct"
"Cannot be more than agree! I lived 1.3 miles from my daughter's school. There is no safe rount for her to transport from school and home by walking or riding bike. We often dropped her in the morning because the school bus picks up kids very early. My kid"
"All kids should be able to ride the bus if they are the parents want them to. PISD SHOULD NOT charge for the transportation. If they need money get it from the state or figure it in the budget. Thats why we pay taxs."
"My son has to cross Fite and Broadway to get to school. Several buses already drive by our developement on there way to the school. His busing should be covered with the outragous taxes we already pay for the education in this community."
"No fee so all children can get to safely, cut down on traffic around schools which again promotes safety. Pearland keep our children safe.."
"We just received a bill after I was told my child could ride the bus with no fee. We can not afford to pay this extra fee to use the bus service; however, I am a working parent, and we do not have another safe vehicle for my husband to pick up our daughte"
"No safe route from Aston Park Subd to Carleston down Fite Rd. No sidewalks, stray dogs, bad road - absolutely will not let my child walk much less ride bike to school. Bus is only option to get my child safely to school."
"Are my taxes going to be reduced if I take my son to school rather than have him ride the bus? Fite Rd west of 1128 is dangerous. Up until the 2nd week before school let out 2009 there was no sidewalk. Just deep ditches and no shoulders on a busy 2 lane s"
"This fee is obsured."
"We pay the same taxes as everyone else!"
"it is rediculous"
"Obviously the Pearland ISD has no regard for the health and safety of the children in their school district. Additionally, they must be overpaid if they think parents can afford $45.00 a month for transportation - and is that for one child or per family? "
"I strongly agree because my son has to go thru Miller ranch road where there's no sodewalk and very hazardous to go to Challenger elementry"
