For many students the school year is right around the corner.
As we uncovered there is one particular campus some parents are concerned about. It has nothing to do with the school or the district, but the traffic in and around the campus.
Felix Carrizales tells Action 4 News, “As a parent and as a citizen I’m concerned for the safety of drivers, students and children.”
Carrizales says his concerns center around the traffic that will soon generate when the new Pharr campus opens.
The facility located on Rancho Blanco in Pharr will house Southwest High School, Jaime Escalante Middle School, and T-Stem Early College High School, the facility opens on Monday.
Carrizales says, “My concern is that there’s going to be an accident waiting to happen.”
One of Carrizales’ concerns, the lack of school zone signs.
