Cooperative School Zone - Drop-off & Pick-up
A few tips to help make drop-off and pick-up smooth and, most importantly, safe. Your cooperation helps keep everyone safe!
Sumac Ave.
Hug & Go is available on Sumac in front of the school. Parents remain in their car and staff will help your child(ren) in and out of the car. Please continue to pull forward as far as possible to help keep the line moving.
We highly discourage parking on Sumac or having your child cross the street outside of the crosswalks for safety reasons but also to be respectful of our neighbors.
No U-turns are allowed in school zones! See the Boulder City Ordinance for more. Carefully pull into traffic and continue west on Sumac after exiting the Hug & Go.
Cars are not to use the circle drive in front of the school unless you need to utilize the handicapped parking spot.
Parking Lot
Parents are welcome to park in the parking lot and walk their children to their classrooms.
Please drive slowly and watch for students darting out from between cars.
No cars are allowed to drive in the lane closest to the Kindergarten Playground.
All cars need to exit to the right/west-bound on Sumac Ave. Staff will be stationed at the exit to remind drivers of this.
Upland Ave.
Currently, the intersection on the west side of Upland and 19th is closed. Please use caution through this area.
Please watch for pedestrians in the parking area as well as on Upland.
Pedestrians and Bike-riders
We have several bike racks around the school and are working with ROCV to add even more!
The circle drive at the front of the school is blocked off from cars so bikes, scooters, etc. can have a safer path to the bike racks at the front of the school.
Stay alert and do not assume cars know you are there!
As always, please stay off your cell phone while diving, especially in and around school zones.
Volunteering in BVSD
Volunteers and field trip chaperones who volunteer once and are under line-of-sight supervision by BVSD staff at all times only need to go through the front office free Raptor check-in process.
Individuals interested in volunteering and interacting with students on an ongoing basis under line of sight supervision of BVSD staff, complete the appropriate yearly application; ENGLISH or SPANISH. Please note that a $32.00 background fee is due at the time of submission.
For volunteers, partners, or field trip chaperones who will not be under line-of-sight supervision of BVSD staff at all times – CBI fingerprint check is required through a third party vendor (these background checks are now valid for 5 years), paid by the volunteer or partner AND volunteer must sign a BVSD volunteer agreement (Spanish) each year.
Please see the Volunteering at BVSD webpage for additional details.

BVSD is Hiring Bus Drivers
BVSD is suffering from a nationwide shortage of bus drivers. If we do not hire enough drivers we will be forced to eliminate some bus routes, leaving some eligible students without a bus to ride. For many of these students, the school bus is the only way to get to school.
You can help! Apply to be a BVSD bus driver! BVSD offers competitive wages ($25.49 - $29.55/hour) and bonuses ($1,000 - $3,500) for new hires, as well as paid CDL training (No experience necessary to be hired). All employees who work 20+ hours a week are eligible for free health and dental insurance. Click here to apply!
BVSD Help Center opens August 8
BVSD is offering a help center for parents needing assistance with enrollment, open enrollment applications, setting-up parent portal accounts in Infinite Campus, and filling out free-and-reduced- lunch forms. The Help Center will be held at the BVSD Education Center (6500 Arapahoe Rd.) August 10-12 and 14-15 from 9 a.m. to 4 p.m. The help center is free and open to all, no appointments necessary.
