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.

Drop-offs and Pick-up
Many of our students are dropped off and picked up. Directly in front of the school is a handicap and bus zone reserved for our bus pick up and access for handicap pick ups. Please be aware of the bus zones in front of the school and refrain from parking in them during pick-up at the end of the day. Parents and guardians are encouraged to use 14th Avenue as an alternative street to meet their student for pick-up. Thank you.
Student Parking
Students who drive to school may park on the street in front of the school on 44th street or on 14th Avenue on the south side of the school. When parking students must obey all street parking signs. Please do not park in the handicap zones as we have school busses for some of our students.
