Traffic and Travel Safety at GCI

Posted March 23, 2026

We wanted to take a moment to remind families that the turnaround on Dando is designated for school buses, accessible vans, and school taxis. These vehicles rely on clear access in order to safely pick up and drop off students. 

To help ensure student safety, families are asked not to stop or park near the turnaround or in posted no-parking zones on Dando, even briefly. Stopping in these areas blocks school vehicles and can create unsafe conditions for students. 

If you are driving your child to or from school, please park in permitted areas nearby and allow school transportation vehicles the right of way. 

Additional information about traffic and safe travel to school can be found in the Traffic and Travel Safety information sheet. 

Thank you for helping us keep our school community safe and ensuring that school transportation can run smoothly for the students who rely on it.
