[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][b]If you are close enough that you don't get a bus, then your child should be walking or biking. Parents need to stop driving to car pickup! [/b]

Afternoon pickup is the worst. Cars will be idling there for 15-30 minutes. You should not be able to idle like that on school property. Kids get brought out one by one, which drives me insane. Why can't they be in a pen outside? Or after K, just let them walk out by themselves!

My dd is almost 8 and in 2nd grade and isn't allowed to come outside or walk home by herself. It takes an extra 10 min to get her called and allow her to come out the door in the afternoon. [/quote]

OP here
In theory I agree with you.    But like a lot of districts, we have a bus driver shortage.  Buses are having to cram kids (remember, these are high school kids!) 3 to a seat and/or make a second run because there isn't enough room for everyone.  Almost every day on our parent facebook group, there is someone upset because the bus didn't come until after school started, or even come at all!   A lot of the parents dropping their kid off just want to make sure their kid gets to school on time.[/quote]
