APS is considering a change to school bell schedules for the 2008-09 school year. The new schedules would support needed changes to the middle and high school schedules and provide APS families with a high quality, economical bus service.
APS has developed four scenarios for bell time changes that would utiilize more effective bus routes throughout the district. The district invited feedback from parents through an online survey and open houses.
