Traffic Safety
Ensuring our students get to school safely is everyone’s responsibility. Please be mindful of crosswalks, parking rules and speed limits when you are near our schools, especially during the morning drop-off and afternoon dismissal times.
Traffic Safety Reminders from The City of Calgary
The City wants to remind and encourage anyone who is driving children to school to operate their vehicles safely and responsibly. Parents and guardians are reminded not to park where it’s prohibited during drop off and pick up times, such as blocking crosswalks, laneways and private driveways.
Pick up and drop off times can get quite busy. Give yourself extra time to navigate safely around schools, whether you are walking, wheeling, or driving. For those who drive, help alleviate congestion by parking a block or two away and walking in, wherever possible.
Talk to your kids about safe travel practices like using crosswalks with patrols, looking all ways before crossing the street and not jaywalking across the roadways as a shortcut.

Staff Parking Lot
The safety of students and staff at Bowcroft School is of great importance. Please do not use the staff parking lot to drop-off or pick-up your child(ren). This applies to all parents at all times of the day. This expectation is in place to ensure student safety, reduce congestion, and minimize damage to the entrance to the parking lot, which is also the back alley garage entrance for 20 Bowness homes.
We are fortunate to have unrestricted parking around our school. Please park on the street and have your child(ren) walk to the school.
Choose safety over convenience!
Visitor Parking
Visitor parking spots are available near the main entrance for your convenience. Parents and guardians are reminded not to park where it’s prohibited during drop off and pick up times.
