Drop-Off and Pick-Up Procedures

It is important that we know your arrangements for your child’s transportation to and from school ahead of time. This helps ensure smooth drop-off and pick-up routines. Please let us know if your child will be transported by a private bus company, public school van, carpool, or train. Please contact Leslie Victorine [email protected] with this information.

Your child’s safety is our number one priority during both drop-off and pick-up. It is for this reason that we have established these guidelines.

 

Morning Drop-off Time

7:15 a.m. – 7:45 a.m. (at archway)

Students may not be on campus prior to 7:15 a.m. as there are no staff members available for supervision. The school day begins promptly at 7:45 a.m. Dropoff students at the archway.

 

Afternoon Dismissal/Pick-up Time

3:00 p.m. (at archway)

The earliest time that vehicles can begin to form the pick-up line is 2:45 p.m. Vehicles that arrive for regular dismissal prior to 2:45 p.m will be asked to leave campus. Please do not park on either side of Rt. 127 at this time.

For Transportation Companies and Carpools (right side of building)
Transportation companies (public or private) and carpools (two students or more) will continue picking up students at the front of the campus (right side of the building). Students may enter their rides on both sides of the vehicle. Drivers must be patient and mindful of the car in front of them. If a school vehicle has its lights flashing on top of the vehicle, it is illegal to pass it. 

Vehicles Picking Up Single Students (left side of building)
Non-transportation company vehicles (public or private) picking up single students should proceed to the left at the fork in the driveway, toward the left side of the campus, heading toward the portico.

You do not need to park your car and enter the building to pick up your child. Please put your child’s name on a piece of paper on your dashboard. Your child’s name will be radioed to the dismissal staff to let them know of your arrival.

Notify us in writing (a note sent in with your child) or with a phone call (978-236-3100) of any transportation changes for your child. We will not put your child in someone else’s vehicle unless we have your authorization.
