Tarpon has some of the best schools in Pinellas County, what are you talking about? People move from all over to get their kids in there...

Tarpon Fundamental is the only highly regarded school that I know of in Tarpon Springs...other Tarpon schools(34689) are rated 3/10, 6/10 and 7/10... maybe we have differing ideas of what is best...

What would be the purpose of watching kids getting on/off a school bus?

Well that's a bit extreme......but along those lines...I know how my kids were dressed and how they behaved.. They say you can't judge a book by it's cover...but in most cases you can...it's just not pc to say so...
