I noticed in many of the City of Petersburg plans (new library, City Hall, etc) that special consideration was given for handicap access, as well it should be. Then, I noticed that most of our schools do NOT accommodate for the handicap parent. Sure, if you child needs a special bus or entrance, there are accommodations, but for the handicap parent, there is not much. Sure, if you call ahead and make arrangements, you can access the school as the handicap pupils do, but there should be adequate handicap parking and access for visitors and parents, alike...of which, there is none at Walnut Hill Elementary. I plan on exploring other schools in Petersburg to see what access they have.
