By vrt»Y ot»«y Continuous School Zone Have you ever been driving down Wolf Road, just minding your own business, w hen bingo — you have to slow down or stop for a school zone? It seems as if all of Wolf Road is just one big school zone. You start out on the west side of Bay. You ' re driving along, when up pops Westerly. Then no sooner are you going the speed limit when up pops the High School, then Glenview, then Bay Middle School, and finally Forestview. When you are finally in thq clear, you realize that you have left Bay. Dr. Maynard Bauer gave his reasoning for the continuous school zone. It is basic logic. Wolf Road is the central road through town, and the schools are located on Wolf to make it easier for the students to get to and from school, he explained. Some students, when passing by the Middle School or one of the numerous other schools, stop in and say hello to some of their former teachers. When you figure, you ' re already losing time driving through the school zones, why not stop and chat? Along with the school zones, the average Bay High driver has to put up with RTA buses and school buses. Matt Thompson, one such driver, told of his morning adventures. I take my sister to school every day at the Middle School and have yet to get on to Wolf Road without being blocked in by a bus. Then just as 1 get away from there, I run into a school zone at Glenview, which is very aggravating when you have to be to a first period class. For all those people who drive to school and become aggravated, just give into the system and take a bus. While visiting the old homestead, Becky Olson talks to Mrs. Zimmerman, her seventh grade science teacher, about the improvement of being a High School student. Every morning, rain or shine. Matt Thompson rushes from his house on Parkside to drop off his sister. Melissa, at the Middle School, then dashes off to make his first period class. 20 Community
