Bus Routes

Bus routes were sent via email. If you need assistance, please contact the main office at 781-826-2631. The weather looks sunny for Tuesday morning, which is always a help for the first day of school as drivers and families get familiar with the bus routes/times. Please be patient as the routes may take a little longer than usual as everyone says their goodbyes on day one! Thank you for your support.  

Car Drop-off 

  • Enter from Silver Street into the second driveway (this is a one-way-only driveway); go along the back of the building, through the parking lot, and turn right so that the building is on your right.
  • Pull up all the way to the first stanchion. This will allow us to unload several cars at once.
  • Students should exit the car on the passenger side only.
  • Drop-off is from 8:15 to 8:30 am.
  • If you need more time for drop-off, please pull around to the front of the building, park, and walk your child to the main entrance.   

Car Pick-up

  • Enter from Silver Street into the second driveway (this is a one-way-only driveway); go along the back of the building, through the parking lot, and turn right so that the building is on your right. Please double up on both sides of the back parking lot to alleviate traffic backing up on Silver Street.
  • Pull up all the way to the first stanchion. This will allow us to load several cars at once.
