Traffic & Safety Reminder
As we continue working with the City of Maple Ridge to improve traffic flow and safety around the school, please be mindful of the following:
- Use extra caution when turning left onto 203rd Street. Please watch carefully for oncoming traffic.
- Community driveways are private property. There is no parking in these areas — even for quick drop-offs or pick-ups. Our neighbours rely on clear access to come and go.
Thank you for helping keep our students, staff, and surrounding community safe through patience, courtesy, and attention during peak traffic times.
