John J. Montgomery Elementary School
dave: excellent school but the parking is very terrible. The only way to drop of the kids are in green zones (3 car spaces but most of the time its occupied with parents who go down with their children and the only available parking are along the park which is mostly occupied by the people who lives in the appartments accross the street. The only way to drop of the kids is when the crossing lady stops all traffic then all the parents let their kids get out of their vehicle right on the spot but sometimes this is not an option because there are parking patrol who gives out ticket to parents who does that.
