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.
Learn more by visiting Calgary.ca/BeSafe.
All stalls are assigned, please use Visitor Parking on the East side by the fence and register your car in the main office.
Student Parking
Student Parking at Dr. E.P. Scarlett is limited. Students who wish to drive to school and park in the school lot must apply for a parking pass. Should the number of applicants exceed the number of available spaces in the parking lot, passes will be distributed to students who apply and pay all school fees first. Students wishing to apply for a parking pass need to fill out the online 2026-2027 Parking Pass Application . The form will close on September 9, 2026, at noon. Students who will receive a parking pass will be notified via email by noon on September 10th.
Drop-off/Pick-up
If you are dropping off and picking up your student, please do not come into the parking lot. You can drop them off from the street. We want to keep everyone safe.
