Traffic Safety

Traffic Safety Expectations

  • No parking in red zones or in front of fire hydrants, not even for a minute. This is the law.
  • No parking anywhere in the main loop! Spots are reserved for staff and our auction winners. The curb is painted red! Again...this is the law!!!
  • The North loop parking is for staff only. Parents, please DO NOT PARK in the staff parking lots. Parking and walking the children through the parking lot is NOT SAFE.
  • The North loop can be used to drive through, making a U-Turn instead of making a Three-Point turn on Kenter Avenue.

TK/Kinder Gate:

  • If you are walking your child in, please do not block/stand in front of the gate entrance. Our littlest students who are being dropped off need a clear path to get into the gate safely
  • If you are using Valet, please pull your car ALL the way forward to the end of the cones before stopping to let your child out
  • Drivers should STAY in the cars. Our volunteers can help get your children and backpacks out of the car and can help unbuckle car seats if needed!

Traffic Safety Expectations

Main Loop Gate:

  • If you use Valet, please pull ALL the way forward, to the end of VALET before your child/children exit the car.
  • Drivers should STAY in the cars. Our volunteers can help get your children and backpacks out of the car and can help unbuckle car seats if needed!
  • Do NOT stop your car in front of the Main Office, this ultimately blocks KENTER Ave. and the entire loop.

South Yard Gate:

  • Please do NOT make U-Turns from Homewood, it is unsafe as our students cross in our crosswalk.
