Upset Mom Picks Up Daughter On Horse

Quote:
Deidre and her daughters enjoy riding horses.

"Both my kids compete. My 3-year-old and my 8-year-old, they both compete in junior rodeos," she said.

That's why Deidre saw no harm in riding to pick her daughter up from school on horseback, especially since she was trying to prove a point.

"I don't have the funds in my budget to sit in lines for an hour to two and a half hours to wait for my daughter," she said.

Deidre and some other parents are up in arms about a new parking policy at the Crystal Springs Elementary School. Parents are made to line up in their cars and their children are retrieved by the staff one at a time.

Deidre said it's a lot less expensive to wait on a horse. But when she arrived at the school, she was ushered off the property by police.

"Our first priority is the safety of our children, and during our arrival/dismissal, their safety is first and foremost a priority on campus," said Principal Jaime Johnson, who is new to the district.

Something I noticed this week, while driving through a school zone in S. MS

As I was meeting the line of school buses. I noticed there were only a hand full of students on each bus. BUT 100's of cars waiting in line to pick up the kids.

What a total waste of tax payer money for buses....and gas sitting in line for each individual kid.

Whatever happened to walking your overweight ### to school???

Horse pick up

We live in a small town in Oklahoma just up the street from our kids school. It is a pre-k to 8th.

We have several parents that will ride up to the school and pick up the kids. The kids get a real kick out of it because it is alot more fun than riding in a car.


They do not get in the car lines because the horse could get spooked instead they tie the horses up to steel pipes that surround the electrical box.

I think it is cool, as much as it costs to drive these days I wish I could ride a horse to work.
