Parking Lot Safety

Parking Lot Safety Reminders:

Student safety is paramount to the success of all Mountain View students.  Ensuring that students are safe in all school environments is a priority for all Mountain View staff.  To assist parents and students with student safety in school parking lots, safety procedures in the parking lot and drop off lane are provided by our school.  Parents and students should follow these guidelines:

·         Always proceed with caution in all school parking lots and drop off lanes

·         Follow the direction of school personnel while dropping off or picking up students

·         Students should only enter and exit vehicles on the curbside.  Please do not have students walk around vehicles to enter a car or while exiting

·         Parents and students are to walk across the drop off lane only in designated areas.  At no time should students or parents weave in between cars while crossing the drop off lane

·         Students should be accompanied by parents while in the parking lot.  Students will not be allowed out in the parking lot area without a parent.

For the safety of your child and all our students, please adhere to these regulations and procedures for our parking lot and drop off lane.
