A Q and A with the Middletown school board explains why bus service exceeds legal distances due to lack of public transit in Amanda Oneida LeSourdville and Monroe and urban safety concerns. Board President Jim Finley notes no extra levy was planned in 1964 as bonds and staffing needs were addressed when new schools opened. Tax-rate changes over ten years show modest increases despite rising property values.
