Yeah, I thought that might be the case with your initial description of the 
intersection. Bummer.

No idea of the legality of becoming a self-nominated crossing guard, but 
the optics of Mom protecting the "bike bus" at new, stupid designed 
intersection (call the local newspaper?) who happens to have a safety stop 
sign if needed (even if you cross the three directions) sure won't have 
many against you.

Another idea: invite the principal and school board and city council and 
newspaper to bike to school with you. They can discover the "fun" for 
themselves.

With abandon,
Patrick
