Student Drop-Off and Pick-Up
Medway Schools 2007-2008

McGovern School

Grades 1 and 2

Drop-off and Pick-Up
McGovern School’s parking lot has been reconstructed and will have a new drop-off and pick-up pattern consisting of three lanes. Vehicles will now be allowed to enter the school’s driveway to drop off children in the morning and pick them up in the afternoon.

The procedure for cars will be as follows:

  • Enter the McGovern School driveway by staying in the right hand lane.
  • At the top of the driveway, bear right into the faculty parking lot.
  • Proceed to the end and turn left into the student drop-off and pick-up lane.
  • Drop your child off or pick him/her up in the designated area.
  • Proceed immediately to the exit lane to leave the complex.

Important Notes:

  • Do not drop-off your child at the school before 8:45 AM. There will be no supervision for the children prior to this time.
  • At no time should vehicles be parked or left unattended in the pick-up and drop-off lane.
  • No vehicles are allowed in the circle area in front of the building during the drop-off and pick-up period.
  • Buses only will be utilizing the middle lane in the driveway. Other vehicles will be restricted to the outside enter and exit lanes.
  • Do not drop off or pick-up your child in the faculty parking area as this may pose a safety issue.
  • Pick-up and drop-off is restricted to the designated areas.

Middle School
Drop-off and Pick-up:
  • Enter the access road on the south side of the school and use the gravel parking lot or enter the main parking area by the old tennis courts and follow the designated route as outlined by the orange cones. Please stay to the left. When exiting the facility, yield to any buses exiting at the same time and turn to the right or left depending upon your destination.
  • Due to Police Department budget cuts, there may be no crossing guard on duty on Holliston Street at the school bus entrance (near the front office and bell). Students should walk down to the crossing guard on duty at the middle school exit for school buses and cars.
  • No cars will be allowed in the front entrance circle (bus loading area) between 7:00 a.m. and 7:45 a.m.
  • Kelley Street may not be used as a drop-off and pick-up area for Middle School students.
