Ken Lewis, Director of Transportation Services for the Seminole County School District, issued a clarification today of his original statement concerning continuation of courtesy busing at Evans Elementary School in Oviedo.

"The busing will continue through the 2005-06 school year." said Lewis.  "When we bring the issue to the table again in October of 2005, it will be to evaluate whether or not the School Safety Advisory Committee was able to remedy some of the safety concerns voiced by the parents."

Lewis issued the statement in response to his original statement, posted to Seminole County Watch yesterday.  Lewis' original statement inferred that the busing might not extend past the review scheduled in October.
