There is no parking allowed in the red zones at any time.

School Safety

Please follow this Safe Drop Off link and review the process for a safe student drop off in the morning.

We have observed a couple of close calls during the drop off or pick up of our Valley Students.  We are asking that everyone please review the process in place and follow those guidelines when dropping their child or children off in the morning.
