Parking Lot Safety

 

New Student Drop Off Procedure 
  • 👮 We’ve partnered with South Jordan PD and our bus duty staff to make the front lot safer.
  • 🚫 The front parking lot is no longer a drop-off/ Pick-Up zone for anyone (including special education).
  • Buses will use the lot, which will be closed for parking from 8:40–9:10 AM.
  • The lot will open again around 9:10 AM. It will close again during dismissal.
  • You can still use the drop-off lane (marked by green cars) and other parking spots (marked by red cars) shown on the map.
  • Please don’t park on the corners—buses can’t turn safely when cars are there, and it creates dangerous blind spots for cars leaving the carpool lane. Please don't plow over our cones 🙂
  • 🚸 Kids copy adults. Please use crosswalks and walk around parking lots.
  • 🚦 City safety guards off school property aren’t MVE employees. If you notice something wrong or no one is there, don’t hesitate to call 911—we’ve been instructed to do the same.
  • 🤗 You’re always welcome in our building; we want a warm, inviting atmosphere, but student safety will always come first.
  • ⏰ Please plan ahead: safety > convenience.

Please do not block traffic on 2700 W by attempting to turn into the front parking lot from 8:40-9:10 AM

 

Drop-Off and Pick-Up Procedures 

In order to ensure the safety of our students at Monte Vista Elementary, as well as the smooth flow of traffic in our parking lots, we would like to remind you of the
following procedures:

  • Please limit your speeds. It is important to remember that children sometimes act unpredictably, and lower speed allows for appropriate reaction time.
  • Please pull forward to the drop off zone before letting your students out of the car.
  • Parents or Guardians will drop off and pick up students in the south parking lot closest to the church, the middle row of the parking lot is reserved for faculty and staff parking, Parking is available for parents who need to park and come into the building. After parking please use the crosswalk and enter through the front doors.
  • Please refrain from dropping off and/or picking up students in front of the school. This is for bus loading/unloading ONLY.  In the morning, students are asked to walk to their grade level area to line up.
