Public Transportation

Know the Roads

1. The SmaRT program can run very close to campus, and is easy to use. More information on this program can be found here, while the service area can be found here. In some cases, ridership may be free – Sac RT has additional details here.

2. Regional Transit’s Line 11 offers a great alternative to driving to campus.  RT busses stop within a short walking distance to school.

3. After taking Regional Transit or similar services to your drop-off point, please be familiar with the walking routes to school.

Know the Roads

1. Please respect and follow all public transportation rules while using public transportation services.

2. When taking public transportation to school, make sure you leave enough time between your designated drop-off spot and the time it takes to walk/bike/skate to school!

3. For all public transportation users who make their way to campus, we ask that you demonstrate safe walking/biking/skating habits at all times.

Know the Rules

When driving to the campus to pick-up your student, please follow one of these three rules:

1. Students can be picked up from the school parking lot. Westlake has learned quite a bit over these past few years on how to load students quickly and safely. We will do our best to keep the line moving, and ask for your help in following these rules.

2. Parents may park on any Green Road, meet their student on campus, and walk them back to the car. Please do not park near the entrance of the school’s parking lot while picking up your student, as that will impede other parents from queueing up in the pick-up line. Parents who wish to drive, park and pick-up their students can reunite with their students in the classroom.

3. Families who elect to have their student participate in the daily after-school walking school bus can reunite with their student at Burberry Park (link to map) approximately 20 minutes after the bell rings.

Know the Rules

When driving to the campus to drop-off your student, please follow one of these three rules:

1. Drop-off your student in the school’s parking lot. There is ample space so you can stop, drop-off your student, and get quickly back on the road.

2. Drop-off your student at the horse in Valley Oak Park. Students who wish to have a short, self-led walk to campus can be dropped off by parents near the horse structure in Valley Oak Park. Please do not drop your student off near the entrance of the school’s parking lot, as that will impede other parents from queueing up in the drop-off line entering the parking lot.

3. Park and walk with your student from any Green Zone. There is ample short-term parking near the campus if you would like to park in a Green Zone and walk with your student to school. As you walk with your student, please follow all traffic and pedestrian rules.
