Parking, drop-off, and driveline, oh my! We are super excited to have students again on Tuesday, but along with that comes the drive line! Brush up on your plan and take a look at all of the resources we have made for you to help with the smooth process! Please remember that we have installed speed bumps this summer, so don't lose your muffler flying through the driveline. Also, the Boston bridge construction may add some time to your commute. Please watch our video and look through the handbook at the maps provided to you! We can't wait to see everyone!
