Traffic Safety
Ensuring our students get to school safely is everyone’s responsibility. Please be mindful of crosswalks, parking rules and speed limits when you are near our schools, especially during the morning drop-off and afternoon dismissal times.
Traffic Safety Reminders from The City of Calgary
The City wants to remind and encourage anyone who is driving children to school to operate their vehicles safely and responsibly. Parents and guardians are reminded not to park where it’s prohibited during drop off and pick up times, such as blocking crosswalks, laneways and private driveways.
Pick up and drop off times can get quite busy. Give yourself extra time to navigate safely around schools, whether you are walking, wheeling, or driving. For those who drive, help alleviate congestion by parking a block or two away and walking in, wherever possible.
Talk to your kids about safe travel practices like using crosswalks with patrols, looking all ways before crossing the street and not jaywalking across the roadways as a shortcut.
Learn more by visiting Calgary.ca/BeSafe.
When dropping off or picking up students please park in assigned parking zones on the street. Please do not use the staff parking lot. Be street-safety wise. Do not jaywalk or allow your child to do so. Follow the city bylaws.
Designated Bus Parking
We now have 8 school buses arriving at the beginning of the school day and departing at the end of school. These buses have been designated to park in between the bus stop signs and only buses are allowed between the signs. Parking in this zone could result in a ticket.
Alternates are to let your children off at the hole in the fence on Northmount Drive or at the entrance gates at the N.E. and S.E. side of the playground. Thank you for your co-operation.
