After School
After dismissal students may be picked up in front of the school off the private driveway.

Traffic Violations
The L.A. Police Department patrols the school on a regular basis to help insure pupil safety around the school, especially at arrival and dismissal times. Citations may be issued for violations, including loading or unloading of students in the school parking lot, double parking, illegal U-turns, parking next to a red curb, speeding, and failure to make complete stops at stop signs. We urge parents to follow these and all traffic regulations for the safety of all.

Walking to School
Please talk to your children and help them select the safest route to and from school. Stress to them the importance of crossing only at marked crosswalks, to cross only on the proper signal light, to look both ways and be sure the road is clear before crossing. Students must be dropped off or picked up on the school side of the street. Never ask your child to jaywalk or to go into the roadway between parked cars.

Bicycle Safety
Only children in grades 4-8 may ride their bicycles to school if these conditions are met:
1.      The bicycle has been licensed and registered.
2.      The following safety rules are observed:

Bicycles must be walked on the school ground.

  • Bicycles will be parked in racks located near the kindergarten yard.
  • All bicycles must be locked.
  • Students must wear helmets. (IT IS THE LAW)
