'The assertions that kindergarten students at our Early Childhood Education Center are in cages in the hot sun for 30 to 40 minutes at dismissal are categorically false,' district superintendent Gerry Washburn hit back.

"The assertions that kindergarten students at our Early Childhood Education Center are in cages in the hot sun for 30 to 40 minutes at dismissal are categorically false," Washburn said, adding that children are kept in shaded conditions during pickup slots for 15 minutes or less.

He said:"The plan also creates an orderly dismissal process, significantly reduces parent wait times and reduces traffic backups. We are also only in the seventh day of school. We believe the process will become even better as parents, staff and students become familiar with dismissal procedures. We will continue to refine and improve the plan as issues come up."on the Early Childhood Education Center website, the term started for students between August 7 and August 8.

Washburn said complaints about the current pickup situation from kindergarten students' parents were"indicative of the frustration everyone in Carlsbad experiences on a daily basis traveling on roads designed for 28,000 people, not the 40 or 50 thousand people we currently have in our community." The superintendent added:"Resolving these issues will require additional capital expenditures and time. Our team is working hard with the community to develop solutions to the problems."
