[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]In FCPS my kid would be on the bus for an hour. It’s a 10 minute drive to school. I much prefer my child getting more sleep than catching a bus at 6:35 am (after a 10 minute drive to walk).[/quote]

OP isn't criticizing parents picking up their kids from school. They are wondering why so many are there to pick them up an hour before dismissal.[/quote]

But a lot of PPs are criticizing parents for picking up their kids in any fashion when the bus is available.  Almost everyone at our school qualifies for the bus and yet the pick-up line is very long everyday.  I guess all these kids and parents are jerks.  [/quote]

It’s not picking them up that OP is criticizing.  The the arriving an HOUR prior to dismissal and just sitting there in the parking lot so your child can be one of the first out.  Sorry but that is nutty.  If you arrive 5 min after dismissal, you will have almost no wait time.  Your kid can stand around for a few minutes.  They will be fine and probably still get to practice on time [/quote]

That may be true at your kid’s school but getting to my kid’s school five minutes after the bell means about a 20 min wait till you get back on the road. Your experience is not universal. [/quote]

But 20 minutes is still better than 60 minutes so your argument is numerically illogical.[/quote]
