[quote=Anonymous]Here's what I don't get--- There are three playground equipment areas at Bancroft. The toddler area is fenced (even within the larger playground) and right inside the gate and separate from the other areas. It seems to me that the dismay re the policy is mostly coming from the parents of toddlers---who would really like some late afternoon time for their kids on the playground---because, as has been explained, there is no other available play space in the neighborhood. So why not let the toddlers (with parental supervision) use that fenced-off area? That would seem a reasonable compromise, and one that wouldn't turn off the toddler parents---who are the parent group the PTA would most like to reach out to anyway. I say this as a MtP parent of older kids who would not benefit from this type of compromise policy at all. And indeed, I support the idea that older kids should be excluded from the playground during after care hours for safety reasons. [/quote]
