State budget cuts have forced the school district to cut its bus services to 98 percent of high school students. Only five middle schools still get busing. Even elementary schools have been losing service. And deeper cuts are promised for next year.</p> Thu, 22 Mar 2012 20:26:14 +0000 Kyung Jin Lee 7926 at http://kalw.org In San Francisco, it’s not always easy to get to school
