Welcome to North Canyon

• Student drop-off will be in the northwest parking lot off Westcott in the back (north) of the campus. For safety reasons, please do not drop students off near the front entrance to the school via Union Hills, or along 19th Place near the staff parking lot.

• All students who drive will park in the front of the school. The student section is in the east section of the parking lot next to the auditorium. Please do not park in the parking lot by the gym. We will not be checking for passes the first week.

• As a reminder, school ends at 2:10 p.m. No students should remain on campus unless they are participating in a supervised activity.

Bus stop information is posted in the hallway between Student Services and the Counseling Department. Families may also access the bus transportation listings online. If you drive your child to school, but plan for him or her to take a bus home, please make sure your student has written down the correct bus route.

We have two lunches. During lunch, students can access the cafeteria, cafeteria patio, mall area outside the gym, Media Center, and our student store – the “Snake Pit.”

All PVSchools high schools are closed campuses; students are not allowed to leave during the school day unless they are signed out by a parent or guardian or unless they are seniors with an early release schedule. Outside food is only allowed if it is dropped off by a parent or guardian (ID will be checked). Deliveries will be turned away.

At North Canyon, we have made a concerted effort to ensure students dress appropriately for school and the learning environment. Having an ID badge while on campus is required. The first ID is free. Replacement IDs are $5 each. 

North Canyon is a place of learning where we want students to be able to express themselves while also promoting a positive learning environment. Clothing students might wear in social settings or outside of school may not be appropriate to wear to school. We want all students to be dressed appropriately for the school day.

Students should come to school wearing the following:

• Clothing that covers the entire midriff, has a back, has straps, fits closely under the arms, and is not too low cut.

• Clothing that is of adequate length to cover the bottom at all times.

• Clothing that has appropriate language. Please do not wear clothing that depicts or references drugs or alcohol, has a sexual reference, has profanity, or contains language that demeans others.

• Appropriate footwear for a safe learning environment. Please do not wear slippers.

• Headwear may be worn on campus, but please remove it in the building or classroom if asked by a staff member.

We encourage you to read more of the guidelines in the PVSchools Family/Student Handbook. In the document, page 24 addresses student dress, conduct, and appearance.
