If a parent/guardian is able to volunteer their time at the hill AND/OR help transporting equipment with a truck from the school to the hill on these ski days, please email : [email protected]
Student Drop-Off & Pick-Up
With over 900 people at the school each day, your help is appreciated to facilitate safe drop-offs and pick-ups.
Ways to assist:
- Please do NOT go straight across the road out of the drive-thru as it blocks vehicles behind you.
- Follow the direction of our crosswalk supervisors
- If using the drive-through, follow the direction of the green arrows during peak times
- Do not block the driveways of neighbouring residents
- Review bike, scooter, and pedestrian safety with your child
- Have a planned meeting spot away from high-traffic locations
- Do not use the staff parking lot for drop-offs and pick-ups
Footwear Reminder
With snow now on the ground, we ask that students have both indoor and outdoor shoes each day. Changing footwear helps keep our classrooms and hallways clean, dry, and safe, while also protecting our gym floors and carpets. Thank you for helping us keep the school comfortable and ready for learning this winter.
