School Zone Bus Lane, Crosswalks, and Parking
- NEVER drop your children off in the teacher’s parking lot.
- SLOW DOWN through the designated school zones around campus. The speed limit in the zones is 20 MPH.
- Please observe the “No Parking” signs around the crosswalk. Do not park in front of those signs for the safety of the people using the crosswalk.
- The bus lane is off limits for parking at all times. Failure to observe this could result in a parking ticket from the city.
- After school, students may cross the street and meet an adult at the park only if the proper paperwork has been filed with the teacher.
- Parents and students may cross only at the crosswalks. Please follow the directions of the crossing guard when one is present.
- Do not let children ride a bike through the crosswalk. They need to walk the bike across the street and park it at the bike rack.
- Parking in the alley behind the houses or using the driveways of the houses around campus is not allowed.
- On Overton Park Drive East and Overton Park Drive West, please park at least 20 feet from the intersections to allow the school buses to make the turns.
