STUDENT PICK-UP & DROP-OFF - A SAFETY CONCERN

Parents/Guardians are asked to pick-up and drop-off students in the Bus Loop to the north of the school or in the Parking Lot of Southdale Community Centre.

The staff parking lot located to the north of the school is not a pick-up or drop-off area. As cars are backing up and leaving the lot, it becomes a safety issue.

PLEASE DO NOT PICK-UP OR DROP-OFF STUDENTS AT THE FRONT DOORS ON LAKEWOOD BLVD. THIS BECOMES A DANGEROUS AREA CREATING A TRAFFIC HAZARD.

Thank you for your continued support in this safety concern.
