​​​​​​​​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 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.

Parking & Drop-Off

Crossing

It is very important that we, as the adults, model safe procedures.  Please be sure to ALWAYS use a crosswalk or corner to go across the street (even if the children aren’t with you) – they are always watching and never cross between buses or cars.  

Driving

If you are driving your child, please remember, there is no drop off or pick up in either parking lot, please drive slowly through the playground zone and no u- turns anywhere in a playground zone.  We want to protect all of our students but we also want to protect you as these are rules of the road and we do not want any of you to get a ticket!
