To ease traffic congestion at the schools and drop off traffic issues in neighborhoods in San Elijo Hills, a new carpool matching program called SchoolPool has been launched for the 2009-2010 school year. Finding a match with the online tool is free and easy. Designed to help parents connect with other parents living in the same SEH neighborhoods and delivering kids to the same schools. The system makes the match, and the parents divide up the driving responsibilities.
San Elijo Middle School has already set up the SchoolPool program. The goal is to save time, gas and help the environment, while also improving safety within school zones and neighborhoods with heavy drop off traffic. Any school in San Diego County is eligible to participate.
