Their is a significant amount of children left unattended outside the front entrance between the time of 7am and 7:30am when the school currently opens. Currently their is no supervision or inside provisions provided for these students. It is in the best interest of the children that they be allowed to enter the school at the earlier time of 7:00am where they will be out of the weather and under supervision. By signing this petition you agree and are stating that you feel it is the responsibility and duty for the Manchester City School Board & College Street Elementary School to open their schools to students no later than 7:00am.


Thanks in advance for your support in making this change as it benefits both the health and safety of our children.

If they opened @ 7 then my oldest son could drop his brother off at CSES then continue on to high school and not be late.

I totally agree my daughter has been in track club which starts at 7:30 we would get there a little bit earlier sometimes and kids were waiting with no supervision in the cold outside... ....I couldnt make myself leave until they were letting them in. In this day and age you can never be to careful we have to solve a problem before it creates a problem and at that time we decide to change it...

I couldn't agree more!!!! The ones that eat breakfast at the school, are only allowed such a limited amount of time once the doors are even opened! Think about it, if I drop my boys off right at 7:30 they have to walk all the way through the school to the back left corner, there's a minute or two, then stand in line to get their food and pay, that's another 5-10 minutes depending on how many other children there are to eat breakfast, then the remainder of the time is spent scarfing down their breakfast and trying to hurry back through the school to make it to class before 8 or they are counted as tardy!!!! Dillon has a tardy because of this which counts against him even though he was at school the entire time, EARLY!

Hopefully this goes for Both of the Westwood schools also. the Jr high has No esp program and I know first hand how hard to leave your child in the weather because you have to get to work and waiting til the last possible min to let your child out hoping the doors would be open.

I don't understand what the problem is with them opening at 7:00...most of the other schools open at that time. ..this is crazy...our children and grandchildren are our greatest gifts...Don't you think that if it was Christmas gifts that they wouldn't protect them...heck yeah...they would stand guard over them....my gosh...what is wrong with the school systems are crazy....why is it that some people are so blind about stuff that after something happens then they decide to wake up...keep your eyes open now...this is little children that needs to be protected. ...this is what is wrong with most of the school systems. ...

Definitely let the kids in, it's way to cold out. Also they could let them go over to especially if had to

I don't have children but I agree 100% people should be able to feel secure about dropping their child off at school buthis and many more things that happens in. schools today people can't that's why there is more and more parents doing home schooling these days
