Getting Around Campus - SISD Traffic Flow
SISD Traffic Flow Plan
Important Information - Please Follow These Directions:
The SISD Traffic Plan has been designed to maximize safety and optimize traffic flow around SISD campus. Drivers are asked to assist in flow optimization by following the SISD Traffic Plan Guidelines (below).
The Traffic Plan has been designed to keep bus traffic and car traffic separated as much as possible.
The word “staging” is used for the procedure in which cars stack up in lines for drop-off and pick-up. The design of the Traffic Plan was created to limit staging on Hounsel Lane to the middle lane to allow for traffic flow, both west- and east-bound.
The staggered campus start and dismissal times will allow for traffic to mostly clear from the north side (SES and SIS) of campus before activity increases on the south side (SMS and SHS).
Sunnyvale Elementary School
Pick-up and Drop-off sites will be flipped from previous years. Cars will use the loop on the south side of the building (facing the baseball field and FFA barn) and buses will use the loop on the north side (the location in which car pool took place in years past).
Cars should stage in single file along Raider Drive from south to north by the baseball field. Staging for the elementary should not take place along Hounsel Lane to allow for staging capacity for the intermediate campus.
Elementary students will be released from the elementary gym.
After picking up their elementary students, parents who do not have students at the intermediate school are encouraged to exit to the south (toward SHS) by turning left on Raider Drive to avoid congestion around SIS.
Should parents have students at both SES and SIS, please pick your elementary student up first at the designated location above, turn right on Raider Drive and then enter the intermediate school staging area from Hounsel Lane.
Sunnyvale Intermediate School
Cars will use the west side drive (front - facing Collins Road) at the intermediate school building. Buses will use the east side drive (back). SISD asks that no cars use the east drive at any time to ensure the safety of our bus students.
Cars will turn in from Hounsel Lane and double-stage along the front drive. Students will be released from the gym.
After picking up their intermediate student, parents may turn left or right on Nance Road. However, by Town Ordinance no left turn will be allowed from Nance onto Collins. While the Town and School District have worked to improve visibility, a left turn is still unprotected and dangerous.
Drivers who need to go south (toward SHS) from the campus are asked to turn right from the front drive onto Nance Road, follow Nance Road to the newly constructed Hounsel Lane extension and then take Hounsel Lane to the traffic light. This route will allow for cars to enter Collins Road with the protection of the traffic light.
Sunnyvale Middle School and Sunnyvale High School
No major changes are being made to SMS traffic. As a reminder, SMS drop-off and pick up occurs from west to east (from Collins Road toward the stadium) in front of the campus, which faces north (toward SHS). Parents are asked to not drop-off and pick up students in the parking lot by the stadium since that area is used for buses.
The SHS parking lot immediately to the south of the dining hall and student entrance is designated as the Student Parking Lot. Drop-off or pick-up in the Student Parking Lot should not take place. Additionally, parents are asked to not drop-off or pick-up their students in front of the Fieldhouse along Raider Drive.
Beginning this year, SHS parents are asked to drop-off and pick-up students in front of the building or in the newly constructed parking lot only. This parking lot is between the High School and the Fieldhouse. Using this parking lot we help alleviate traffic congestion in the Student Parking Lot and along Raider Drive.
