[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]At my child's elementary school, the bus loop is closed to cars during morning and afternoon bus times but open to cars for parking in clearly marked sports all other times. When I've been to school to pick up a sick kid, I've been thankful to not have to drag a sick kiddo across the parking lot. [/quote] Well, I don't know about your ES, but at our ES, the parking lot is never full on a normal day, and it is an extra 20 to 30ft to get to a parking space vs the bus or drop off loop. Short of a child on a death bed, I'm pretty sure a sick child can walk the extra 20 ft or so. I've had to pick up my kids from school, too, for being sick, one with a bloody head injury that required a trip to the ER. I parked at a designated parking spot rather than block the traffic and the bus. If you're parking in a designated area, then this doesn't apply to.[/quote] :roll: The bus loop is an open designated parking lot after the am and pm bus runs. I'm going to use it as such- sick kid, healthy kid, just because. [/quote] well, as I said, if that is the rule in your ES, then this PSA is not for you. But, the loops aren't designated parking lots in other ESs, especially when there are still buses coming to the school after school hours. And if your ES doesn't have after care with a drop of loop, again, this PSA isn't for you, but thanks for chiming in about how great it was that you didn't have to schlep your sick kid an extra 20ft to your car.[/quote]
