​AUTOMOBILES/PARKING LOT


Driving on church and school grounds​ should be done with caution. The posted speed limit on church and school grounds is 5 m.p.h. All traffic signs and parking regulations are to be observed and adhere to while on church and school grounds. 

Parking on church and school grounds and parking lots should only be done when and where permitted and expressly for church- and school-related business purposes. Parking on church and school premises during school hours is at owner's risk. The church and school assume no responsibility for damages to vehicles or theft of possessions. Parking overnight on church and school grounds and parking lots is not permitted and vehicle will be towed at owner's expense.

Parents arriving when the Van Ness gate is closed​, must park in the church parking lot and walk/escort your child(ren) to the front door or back to their vehicle. For school safety, do observe the following:

  • The Van Ness Avenue gate between the school and the convent is an ENTRANCE ONLY gate and will be closed daily at 7:55AM.
  • DO NOT STOP near the school building, lunch room, or social hall when dropping off your child(ren) in the morning! Drop off students only in designated areas and when it is safe to do so. 
  • The 135th Street gate northeast of the church (next to the rectory) is an EXIT ONLY gate.
  • The Van Ness Avenue gate next to the church is an EXIT ONLY gate.  This is a RIGHT TURN ONLY gate and all City of Gardena traffic laws will apply.

Please note: The school ENTRANCE and EXIT gates are closed and locked during school hours, therefore, any parent needing to take care of school business in the office, must park their vehicle in the church parking lot to avoid being locked in.
