UPDATE ....
There will now be transportation from Liberty to the Boys and Girls Club thank you everyone for your support
I am asking all parents who are in the Cherokee County School system to please sign my petition. I am appealing to the school board to add a drop off at the Boys and Girls club of metro Atlanta to a bus route leaving Liberty Elementary School. I am asking that the school add a stop on the route that currently drops children at the Alexander Ridge apartments. The club is just 1.25 miles from the apartments and only 2.19 miles from the school itself.
I am a single parent who relies on the Boys and Girls club as childcare for my daughter. There are currently 13 additional families from Liberty who are either from single parent homes or homes that need both parents to work and need to utilize the services of the Club but cannot due to transportation issues. I understand Liberty offers aftercare, as for me I work 25 miles away and need the added time the Boys and Girls club offers, I am not physically able to get to the school to pick up by the time they close. In addition the club offers homework assistance, life skills and many programs that expand my daughters mind and social thinking.
So again I am asking if you would please sign this petition and give a hand up to many families who need the services of the Club.

The Cherokee County School Board is still ignoring our calls despite knowing our families are stuck without childcare. I am currently drafting a formal letter demanding a meeting because their refusal to route that bus is creating an impossible burden for every working parent at Liberty.

Please add the drop off at the BGC leaving Liberty Elementary. It will help lots of families. Thank you.
Please share with anyone you know. We've only been in the area a year and don't know many people.
Good Luck. I am a working parent and understand the importance of after school care and homework help.
Please add the drop off at the Boys and Girls club to the bus route leaving Liberty ES.
When my kids were little, they also attended the BGC as it was so affordable and they had many activities. I too had the same problem and could not continue with afterschool care there due to their elementary school not being on the route, even though the Middle School and High School were. Made no sense. I fully support this and wish you much luck.
Also needed for Knox Elem.
These children deserve transportation!
