We have been requesting a crossing guard to assist children in our neighborhood to cross McHard Road at Old Alvin Road to Cockrell Elementary since we moved in May 2015. We were told by the principal in 2015, Mrs. Roberts, that she would arrange a crossing guard for the next school year. The following fall, Cockrell had a new principal, Mrs. Behrendsenk. I spoke with her numerous times during the 2015/2016 and 2016/2017 school years about a crossing guard but there is still no crossing guard. Mrs. Behrendsenk at one time stated that McHard was too busy of a street for children to cross and she did not feel it was safe even with a crossing guard.

Our neighborhood is also just within the 2 mile radius to Sablatura Middle School and West Junior High so bus service is not offered for free to our neighborhood. A crossing guard at McHard and Old Alvin would allow the middle school and Junior High kids in our neighborhood to ride bikes to school.

We, the undersigned, request Pearland ISD to provide a crossing guard at McHard Road and Old Alvin for Cockrell Elementary School, Sablatura Middle School and West Junior High School students. If it is deemed unsafe to cross this intersection, we request that Pearland ISD provide free bus transportation to all students living north of McHard Road that attend Cockrell Elementary, Sablatura Middle School and West Junior High.
