UPDATE: Students are cleared to return to the main building. The problem was located and addressed. There was a leak in a roof area that caused water to leak on a regulator and cause a failure. The gas will remain off until the repair is fully complete.

To help families get ready for the new school year, we’ve created parking guides for each school. These show designated parking areas and drop-off/pick-up zones to keep things safe and running smoothly.

Since Columbia Vista Intermediate is opening this year, we’ve also added a flyer to show which streets are in the walking zone. Check it out below.

Para ayudar a las familias a prepararse para el nuevo año escolar, hemos creado guías de estacionamiento para cada escuela. Estas muestran las áreas designadas para estacionar y las zonas de dejar/recoger estudiantes, para mantener todo seguro y organizado.

Como Columbia Vista Intermediate abre este año, también hemos agregado un folleto que muestra qué calles forman parte de la zona de caminata. Revísalo a continuación.

Walking Routes For Columbia Vista Intermediate students who live west of Powerline Road on the streets identified below will walk to school. All others will be bused. It is crucial to note, once the city completes the road improvements to Powerline and adds sidewalks, all students within 1 mile of the school address (251 Grant Street) will become walkers. This transition may occur in stages as Powerline Road sidewalks may be completed in some neighborhoods before others. Walking Addresses (West of Powerline) Taft, Arthur, Wilson, Grant, Truman, Reagan, Hayes, Roosevelt, McFarland, Garfield, Washington (south canal only) W. Columbia Avenue, Van Buren, Harrison Drive, Filmore Street, Polk Ave, Pierce Ave, Tyler Ave, Adams Ct, Sage
Rutas de Caminar Para Columbia Vista Intermedia Los estudiantes que viven al oeste de Powerline Road, en las calles indicadas a continuación, caminarán a la escuela. Todos los demás usarán el autobús. Tenga en cuenta: una vez que la Ciudad complete las mejoras en Powerline Road y agregue banquetas, todos los estudiantes que vivan dentro de 1 milla de la escuela (251 Grant Street) caminarán. Esta transición puede ocurrir por etapas, ya que las banquetas de Powerline Road podrían completarse en algunos vecindarios antes que en otros.
