Dear MacNeill Families,

We wanted to inform everyone that the entrance to the school off of number 4 road is now open again and as the days grow shorter and weather changes, safety around our school is more important than ever—especially during morning drop-off and afternoon pick-up.

Let’s work together to keep our students, staff, and neighbours safe and respected.

Please share with anyone who may be using our property during school hours. Please see the attached map to assist with your understanding of where our student drop off zone is. 

🚗 For Drivers

• Use designated drop-off zones or park in marked spots.
• Avoid blocking driveways or stopping in narrow side streets.
• Be alert for pedestrians and cyclists—stop at crosswalks.
• Arrive early? Park properly and avoid impeding traffic.

🚶‍♀️🚴‍♂️🛴 For Pedestrians, Cyclists & E-Scooter Riders

• Be visible: wear bright clothing.
• Stay alert: avoid using earphones.
• Use sidewalks and crosswalks properly.
• Make eye contact with drivers before crossing.
• Share space respectfully with others.

🛑 General Reminders

• Follow all posted signs and traffic rules.
• Encourage walking, biking, or public transit to reduce congestion.
• Give yourself extra time—rushing leads to unsafe choices.

✅ Let’s make this a safe and successful school year—together!

Sincerely,

MacNeill Secondary
