Parking
At last week’s Meet the Teachers Evening we shared some pointers for parents in the form of Montessori House FAQs. Over the next few days, we’ll share some of these here.
Parking
Q: Where can we park for arrival and dismissal?
A: As you enter the parking lot from Riveredge Road (which is the only way to enter), you will be along the East side of the building. You may park in any of the designated parking spots along the East side of the building/playground. Please note that the school driveways are ONE WAY; you must enter on Riveredge and exit on Knickerbocker.
Q: Can we park in front of the playgrounds?
A: No. For safety reasons, we can’t have cars moving in and out of those spaces during the day since that is where the children walk when they enter and leave the playground. Instead, teachers park in those spaces before children arrive in the morning, and their cars stay parked there until after dismissal. In addition, the Tween Tots school has requested that NO cars be parked in front of their playground or in any of the spaces up to Knickerbocker Road.
Q: Can we park along the sidewalk, especially if we’re just running in to the school for a moment?
A: No, all cars must be parked in designated spaces, and the engine must be turned off if you leave your car.
