Community & Neighbor Hub

GALS LA is committed to being a good neighbor to our community in the residential neighborhood surrounding our campus. This information hub has everything you need to know about how we’re working to be conscientious neighbors and community partners. 

FOR PARENTS:

  • The safety of our students is our top priority. To ensure your daughter’s safety during pick-up and drop-off, we have a plan in place to ensure smooth and safe arrivals and departures from our campus. Please see the details below about how to drop off and pick up at GALS.

  • We have Traffic Ambassadors placed along Runnymede and Valerio to run the drop-off and pick-up. Our Traffic Ambassadors are here to help you get through the line quickly and easily but need your help to make the traffic flow smoothly. Please follow their instructions and all posted signs. 

  • If you need to pick up your student outside of the scheduled drop-off and pick-up times, please contact the Front Office in advance.  

  • As we are teaching our students values like respect and community, we want to model these values by being good neighbors to our local residents. This includes not blocking driveways, using the free parking in our reserved parent parking lot, and following our Traffic Ambassadors directions. 

FOR NEIGHBORS:

  • We appreciate your patience and understanding as GALS LA begins our first school year in our new building. 

  • If you have questions or concerns about traffic or parking at GALS LA, please reach out directly to GALS Leadership via email, at info@galsla.org. 

  • For the safety of our students, faculty, and staff, and as required by policy, visitors are only allowed on campus with prior authorization. Please reach out to GALS Office Staff via email, at info@galsla.org  if you are interested in an on-campus meeting. Due to these safety policies, any visitors on campus who are not pre-authorized will be kindly asked to leave.
