Prince George's school officials defend proposed specialty busing changes

Brandy Meminger's daughter was going to start pre-kindergarten this fall, joining her older brother, a kindergarten student, at the John Hanson French Immersion/Montessori School.

But potential cuts to busing for specialty schools such as John Hanson might derail that plan, said Meminger, a Clinton resident. It would be "a severe inconvenience," she said, to drop off both children at school and still make it to her job in Sterling, Va., on time.
