[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The traffic is what it is. They’ve instituted right turn only out of the parking lot during drop off and pick up times, and that moves things along. Tons of kids are walking in the neighborhoods on their way to school in the morning, so I imagine they’re being dropped off outside the school parking lot and walking. [/quote]

That’s what I was thinking we’d try, drop off a block or two away (wasn’t sure if there were neighborhood restrictions against it, I know that is the case near some schools and they limit drop off zones).[/quote]

I am sure you will be respectful of neighbors, but I live 2 blocks from another school. Families frequently block our driveways "just for a minute", live park by parked cars, and create traffic jams dropping off kids (with band instruments, etc.) and then do illegal u-turns so they can get to work on time---making neighbors late.

The school counts these kids as walkers which is good for their "environmental initiatives" but it is insincere. The school just didn't leave space for a good drop off lane, which is sorely needed.
