Have you tried moving the schools away from the cars?

Realistically that, or a surfeit of pedestrian overpasses, is the only thing that would ever remove any chance of an unfortunate vehicle encounter outside a school. People can be assholes behind the wheel just as easily as anywhere else, and it only takes one.
