Thanks to everyone's prompt and overwhelming response, the Hillsborough County Charter office has reached out to Mr. Burkett to offer their support in addressing our car line issue.

IF YOU ARE IN FAVOR OF GOING BACK TO THE OLD (NON CRISSCROSS) CAR LINE, PLEASE SIGN THIS PETITION. ---- IF YOU ARE IN FAVOR OF THE CRISSCROSS PATTERN, DO NOT SIGN THIS, AS IT WILL COUNT AS A VOTE FOR THE PRIOR CAR LINE.

Please continue to address your support, frustrations and concerns to Mr. Burkett at [email protected]

The momentum behind this change is undeniable and shows that our community will no longer accept the current car line mess. Email Mr. Burkett today to confirm that the old system must return immediately. Tell three other parents to do the same.

I am a grandmother. I help my daughter by dropping her children off about once a week. I drive from Lakeland and must get back in time for work. This is a delay I cannot afford.

Please go back to the old car line. For those of us who have infants, it makes it nearly impossible to be able to get them out and back in without having to move the car should they need it. It also traps anyone parked in the parking lot and prevents them from leaving.

Changing car line back to using both exit gates indeed does work best. I further believe that two bell times also helps relieve the stressful situation with morning traffic on highway 92.

I prefer being able to unload more than 7 cars at a time. The criss cross pattern takes a lot longer and results in my child being late. I'm also concerned about safety as it appears to block all options for emergency transport to reach the school.

Prime example...my son threw up in the car today during drop off. I was stuck for 45 minutes trying to get out. There has to be an emergency outlet.

My middle schooler is getting 15 minutes of education in 1st period currently to accommodate the extra time needed for drop off. 15 minutes of 45. I wonder how her grades will be affected by that?

I live approximately 1 mile away from the school. This affects me and I would say thousands of other people trying to commute to work immensely. Once school starts again I am adding on a WHOLE complete hour to my work trip. THIS IS ABSOLUTELY GETTING OUT OF HAND AND COMPLETELY OUT OF CONTROL. THIS SCHOOL NEEDS TO EITHER BE MOVED OR SHUT DOWN.
