DROP OFF/ PICK UP………… …………… …… … In the interest of safety and having a smooth and swift process, it is crucial that all parents understand and follow these directions when dropping off and picking up at this location: Drop off students at the front of MSE entrance. The entrance is located at the bottom of Gile Road in the lower parking lot. Please have your child ready to exit your vehicle from the right side. Our “red shirt” staff will be ready to receive students and escort them inside to their first period teacher. If you feel it necessary to bring your child into the building yourself, for safety sake, you MUST park in the lower parking lot against the guide rails and must walk down towards the end door and use the walkway. Do not try to walk through the parking lot. Pick up will be divided alphabetically and is different from previous years and is subject to change: Last names beginning A - L should be picked up at the main entrance of MSE (in lower parking lot off of Gile Road) and you MUST enter and exit through the Blue Hill Parkway driveway. Last names beginning M – Z should be picked up at the main entrance of Milton High School, on Gile Road. You MUST enter and exit through the Canton Avenue driveway. These changes are in an effort to create a safe and efficient dismissal procedure. All families will be provided a map outlining the new dismissal plan prior to the start of MSE. In both pick up locations, please stay in your car; your child will be escorted to you.

PRE - K PROGRAM………… …………… … …… Pre-K students attend all four hours each day. Children who participate must be four years old by May 1, 2017 (no exceptions) and NOT entering Kindergarten in September. MSE Pre-K students must be fully toilet trained.
