Uintah Elementary School - Drop-Off and Pick-Up Procedures

PLEASE NOTE – NO PARKING IN THE UINTAH CIRCLE AT ANY TIME

Guidelines:

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.

Procedures:

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:

  • Mayfair Circle (1615 E)*
  • Shannon Street (1615 E)
  • Westbound 1300 S*
  • Northbound corner of Laird Ave. & 1500 E*
  • Westmoreland Place
  • Northbound 1500 E (north side of the 1500 E & 1300 S intersection)*
  • Southbound 1500 E (north side of 1500 E & 1300 S intersection)

 * 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:

  • Children must exit and enter vehicles only on curb side of car by the cones.
  • Vehicles must merge after drop-off or pick-up and turn west when exiting the circle.
