    Can still happen even if its from a walking zone home, correct?
    Can't imagine county would want kindergarteners to walk in winter days!

    Certainly. They don't check ids for drop offs ;)

    Just be aware that everyone gets the same idea and then the drop off line gets to be a significant backlog.

    That's fine about the backlog, as long as we can still drive there! Thx!

    I still can't imagine though they are cutting down so many bus routes.

    Problem with the backlog is that if everyone has the same idea then some children will end up being late for school ......certainly I think Paul Vickers at MRE is trying to avoid that and coming up with other solutions. I don't drop my kids off there but I hear the drop off is already a long longline.....feel sorry for him trying to find a solution for an extra 300 walkers in the fall!!!

    pc23i: There is a procedure to appeal the new MRES walk zones. Send me a PM and I’ll see if I can help.

    The rain this morning was enough to cause a line backed up to the 4-way stop, can't imagine adding to that next year. I have noticed people using the nature center lot to drop off too.
