New Bus Drop Off/Pick Up ~ Standish Road New Bus Drop Off/Pick Up ~ Standish Road

As part of the underground work being performed by the C.Naughton group, a temporary fence has been set up behind the school in the upper parking lot. This has caused the bus drop off and pick up location to be temporarily relocated. All big busses will drop off and pick up on Standish Road, instead of behind the school. Mr. Sylvia and Ms. Healy will meet students at the bus each morning and walk them to the outdoor classroom or inside, depending on weather. Bus students will be dismissed between rooms 11 and 12 at the end of the day, which is located right at the new bus pick up spot.


Special education bus pick up and drop off locations will not change at this time or for any other related work the remainder of this school year.


You will notice new signs put up along Standish Road for the busses. Please be aware of these new spots and do not park along Standish Road. Pictures are located below for your reference. Thank you in advance for your help with this!

Temporary Staff Parking Temporary Staff Parking

We have set up temporary parking for staff behind the school. The upper parking lot near the playground will be fenced off and not accessible. We have created new lined parking spaces near the original part of the building for all staff members to park in.


This area is for staff only. Please do not drive in or park in this area during school hours. Thank you in advance for your attention to this request and patience during this phase of the project.

Squantum Playground Squantum Playground

The Squantum playground will remain open during this part of construction. However, access will be limited to the entrance on Standish Road only. The gate located in the parking lot will be closed.


Please note that if you have a brick located on the path entrance of the playground, these will be removed and safely stored until they can be relocated to the new school.
