Volunteer Automobile Transportation

Any parent who transports students during a school trip are required to fill out a Volunteer Driver Form at the office prior to the trip (form found here). Parents are to ensure that students wear seat belts and that there are enough seat belts for the number of students they are driving.

Bicycles

Bicycles, skateboards and scooters are to be walked on school property and through the crosswalks. Skateboards and scooters may be kept inside the school where the students hang their coats. Bike racks are provided on the Southside of the school. Since the school cannot accept responsibility for students' bicycles, it is essential that students lock their bicycles securely to the bike rack at all times.

Parents who are visiting the school are welome to park on the 22nd Ave or 20th street being mindful of the bus drop off and pick up zones.  Please remember that students should not be picked up or dropped off in the parking lot. Students may be dropped off on 22nd Avenue or on 20th Street. Parents may drop off students in the alleyway but are asked not to park their vehicles there.
