[quote=Anonymous]I LOVE Johnny Cash. So did my grandms; she was so hip.  Or maybe I'm the hip one.
Anyhow, teacher here--no, 4th and 5h graders can't just mind themselves on school property OP.  We live in lawsuit heaven in DC. If anything happened the school would get blamed for turning a blind eye.  I totally agree with the PP who said parents should look out for kids.  That's the way it was at another Janney like elementary my kid attended-there were a LOT of parents at drop-off and we minded each others kids. A big swarm of them, but enough parents to keep things safe.
Ironically, as a teacher my pet peeve is kids who come late.  I am always trying to get kids in my clutches as early as possible.
If you want a teacher to supervise--teachers aide--don't assume they don't have other responsibilities at that time.  Bring it up respectfully through your Parent Body--it probably could be done, or for a small fee.  Security guards have iron clad contracts that I very much doubt include before school playground supervision.[/quote]
