Our Commitment to Traffic Safety at Riverside School

School’s commitment: 

• Educate students about the importance of traffic safety by implementing actions throughout the school year which will inform and reinforce traffic safety around the school.
• Provide parents with information about where to park and where to pick up their children

Parents’ commitment:

• Support school actions by following traffic rules when picking and dropping off children.
• Discuss and reinforce with my child the importance of following traffic safety at all times.
• Model appropriate traffic safety when with my children.

Students’ commitment:

• Use the sidewalk at all times and use traffic safety rules when travelling to and from school.
• Encourage my parents to follow the traffic safety rules at all times.

Important Information for Parents Regarding Parking 

• Please park in areas where you can legally park.
• When parents are volunteering we ask they park at Riverside Bungalow. We are allowed to use the Riverside Bungalow for this purpose even though the signs indicate otherwise.
• Do not use the school parking lots for the drop off/pick up of students

• Most importantly, be observant of children when you are driving in a school area and model good driving practices.
• Obey all traffic signals and speed limits
• Obey school bus flashers and do not park or drop off children in the school bus zones or across the street from the school to jay walk.
• We appreciate our parents who promote and model safe pedestrian crossing at the crosswalks. 
• Students must not walk students between parked buses!
