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.

Student Parking
JCSHS STUDENT PARKING APPLICATION PROCESS
Traditionally, towards the end of August or beginning of September an email is sent to grade 12 students with the Parking Pass Application attached. Students complete the form and submit as instructed. Within 3-5 business days the $40 fee (incl. GST) is added to the student’s PowerSchool account and must be paid online prior to picking up the parking pass. A confirmation email with instructions for pick up will be sent once payment has be received.
Grade 11 and 10 will follow the same process with the hope of having all Parking Passes issued by September 28.
Note: Driver’s license is required for ID – Learner’s permit is not acceptable.
