  • In an effort to maximize the safety of Uintah students and minimize dangerous traffic congestion, Uintah Elementary School encourages the following drop-off and pick-up procedures.  We ask all parents to adhere to the following rules for both morning drop-off and afternoon pick-up:
     

    • NO PARKING in the Uintah circle during school hours.
    • No sitting in car in the Uintah circle between 8:00-8:45 a.m. & 2:45-3:30 p.m.
    • Vehicles may park legally along the north side of 1300 S. for up to 2 hours between 7 a.m. and 7 p.m.
    • No stopping on the crosswalk at any time.
    • All vehicles must enter the driveway circle from the east entrance and exit the circle with the flow of traffic out the west side of the driveway and turn right. 
    • Please exercise caution and courtesy toward other drivers and the Honor Patrol members and other adult staff and/or volunteers.
  • The Uintah administration currently encourages the following four procedures to help you get your children onto the school grounds safely:
     

    1. Walk to school with your children or encourage them to walk with friends.
    2. Carpool with other families as often as possible.
    3. Drop-off and pick-up outside the Uintah circle at one of the following points, in order to avoid traffic congestion and dangerous street crossings:

     * These drop-off points do not require your child to cross any major street to get to Uintah.

    4. Drop-off and pick-up inside the Uintah circle:
