Not personally, no, but I have a relative who lives in the apt complex next door to the school who leaves for work 20 minutes earlier than before they were there.  Not exactly loved in the neighborhood.[/quote]
C'mon, every neighbor hates the additional traffic that comes with every new charter school -- that's hardly unique to YY.  (Neighbors had the cops out at ELH's Kansas campus shortly after it opened last year -- it was ridiculous.)  And I can't believe the extra traffic means anything like an extra 20 minutes -- that's just a drama queen puffing her story.[/quote]

If someone used to leave at 8:15, may chose to leave at 7:55 to just be out of the area before the congestion begins.  Probably takes an extra couple of light cycles if you leave during the busiest drop off time.  [/quote]
