LHSS Parking & Student Drop-off/Pick-up Info

Posted September 2, 2025

With the start of the new school year, we’d like to remind our students and families about our parking and drop-off/pick-up areas.  To ensure the safety of everyone before and after school, please review detailed information posted here.

IMPORTANT HIGHLIGHTS:

  • The  front entrance/lot (Laurelwood Drive) and rear entrance/driveway (Creekside Drive) are for school buses and special transportation only.  No student and/or parent/caregiver traffic is permitted in these areas before startup (7:55 – 8:40 am) in the morning and end of school (2:00 – 2:45 pm) in the afternoon.
  • Laurelwood Drive and Erbsville Road are NOT safe locations to use for drop-off or pick-up as these areas can cause significant traffic issues in front of the school and through the Erbsville intersection.
  • There is no student parking, drop-off or pick-up in the upper or middle lots as this can create unsafe traffic situations (red areas on map).  Students may only park in the lower lot (green area) and are not permitted to use visitor spots in the front lot.
  • The middle and upper lots/parking spots are reserved for staff vehicles only.
  • Drivers may use the rear lower lot circle off Creekside Drive (green area), available lower-lot spots or designated neighbouring streets for pick-up and drop-off.
  • Walking, biking and drop off in the neighbouring streets is recommended over options involving driving to and parking at the site due to high traffic volume, congestion and safety.
