Westview Parking
Westview authorities would like to
remind everyone, picking up student
athletes at the school, that they be
picked up at the south end of the drive
behind the school. Driving back behind
the school is strictly prohibited. The
school has posted a sign to that affect.
The safety of the students, staff and
bus transportation is paramount. It’s
very important that this area be kept
clear. Parents are asked to help with
this matter and their cooperation will
be much appreciated. This is a reminder that parking behind the school
is reserved for coaches and staff only.
Summer camps are included in this
policy.
