OPINION: Is parking lot for parents or students?

Parking lot for students or parents?

The parking lot can be very crowded at times with people walking to class and parents dropping their kids off in the morning. The school should make a designated spot for parents to drop off their kids instead of taking up space in the parking lot for the students.

They could possibly move the bus spot or make another long road like they have for the buses but on the other side of the school to get rid of the congestion in the lot in the morning and after school when parents pick their kids up after school and students are trying to get home.

They should put this in effect asap due to the amount of people attending the school. I understand that this will cost the school a little bit of money but I think with all the money this school gets they should be able to spend a little on something that will help eliminate a big problem.

The School was able to make a new parking lot which helped a little bit but it still doesn’t stop the parents from dropping their kids off in the old parking lot and causing even more traffic in the morning and after school.

This needs to be a focus for the administration and security guards to make sure that parents know you can not drop off your kids in the parking lot in the morning. Some students are late because they have to wait a few more minutes for parents dropping their kids off at school, I’m not saying it is entirely the parents fault but if you can limit problems and make it as easy as possible for students to enter and leave the lot every student who parks in the lot would appreciate it tremendously.
