Dear Parents,

As we progress through the school year, the Livermore Police Department would like to remind everyone to be mindful of the residents living in the neighborhoods surrounding our schools, particularly during morning drop-off and afternoon pick-up times.


Please be considerate when parking and avoid blocking driveways, parking in red zones, or parking near fire hydrants. Additionally, please do not block ADA-accessible curb ramps located at intersection corners, as these are essential for pedestrians, particularly those with disabilities.


We understand that school drop-off and pick-up times can be busy but taking a few extra moments to park legally and safely helps protect our students, maintain access for emergency vehicles, and minimize disruptions to nearby residents.


Thank you for your cooperation and for helping keep our school neighborhoods safe and accessible for everyone.

Halloween Preparations

Please keep these District guidelines in mind when selecting Halloween costumes:


  • Masks must be school friendly (allowed only during the parade, not in class)
  • No weapons or replica weapons
  • No blood or gore
  • Must meet dress code guidelines

In addition, all costumes must comply with the District's student dress code policy (AR 5332).


It is not our intent to complicate or interfere with creativity, but we must assure safety and a positive learning environment for the day. Thank you for your cooperation!
