Hello PRA K-8 Community-
Recently, North Metro Fire reached out to us with recommendations for the GREEN, BLUE, and YELLOW lanes in front of the K-8 building. When we contact EMS and they respond to an emergency at the K-8, it is imperative they are able to drive both ambulances and firetrucks up to the front of the school.
For this reason, both the GREEN and BLUE lanes should remain clear of vehicles at all times other than morning drop off or afternoon pick up. The YELLOW lane can be used for temporary parking (less than 5 min) when a parent or visitor needs to quickly drop off items or pick up students during the school day.
If parents or community members are visiting the campus for longer periods of time during the school day, they should park in designated parking spots in either the K-8 lot, the HS lots, or along Alcott Way.
North Metro Fire also expressed concerns about vehicles parking in the K-8 lot in non-designated parking spots, making it difficult or impossible for emergency vehicles to access or exit the campus. Thank you for your continued support in keeping our entire campus safe and for following the requests of North Metro Fire.
Regards,
PRA Administration
