Farnsley Families: As we have addressed the safest and most efficient processing of car rider drop off and pick up, we want to stress that the safest is the use of the car rider line through the bus compound. Dropping off at alternate locations such as Idle Hour Dr. or the gas station poses a safety concern especially as they walk across busy streets. For the last 2 mornings, the car rider line has been complete by 8:35 and 8:37 am. It is feasible to access the line and process through in less than 8 minutes. Thank you for your cooperation and working through this process. Carolyn B Smith
