Please take the time to share this information with your
child/children.
It is a good way for families to connect with the school.

Parking Lot
Road safety is an important issue for all, and especially
important in school zones where the increased number of children poses a
significant safety concern. Please be sure to use extra caution as you approach
the school, and follow all directional signage. Cars have been observed
recently travelling in the wrong direction through both the bus loop and the parking
lot. As a reminder, all vehicles must enter the school parking lot and/or kiss
and ride from the south entrance and leave safely through the north exit.
The kiss and ride/bus loop is also our designated fire
route, and as such is always a no parking zone. On occasion, a by-law officer or
YRP will ticket vehicles parked in the fire route. Any time you pull up in
front of the school and exit your vehicle (with or without the engine running)
to drop off a lunch or pick up a child is considered parking in the fire route
and you may find yourself ticketed. Also, double-parking your vehicle in the
parking lot with the engine running is an unsafe practice. Please park your
vehicle on the road and approach the building on foot. We recognize the inconvenience
this causes, but the alternative ticket is probably more inconvenient.
