The wave is back, sort of.

Sharon White, the school crossing guard in the Prairie Park neighborhood who was asked last week to stop waving to passers-by, has begun waving again, but in a more subdued way.

This week White could be seen giving small waves at the intersection of 28th Street and Kensington Road – but only to people who waved at her first.

White’s constant waving was the subject of controversy last week in Prairie Park after a resident called to complain that it was distracting to drivers. After her city supervisor suggested that she stop, she obeyed, but about 50 parents and students rallied near her intersection last Friday to support her.

White declined to talk about the issue on Thursday and said the city had asked her not to speak publicly about it anymore.
