Bus Transportation
All students from the Town of Framingham are bussed per the Framingham School Department's policy. The 2008-2009 school bus application may be found here: http://framingham.k12.ma.us/busapplication.htm.
The Framingham Public School system provides morning and afternoon buses on all McAuliffe Regional CPS school days. These buses leave the school at 3:30pm on Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, and Friday, and 1:30pm on Thursday. In addition there are "late buses" scheduled to accommodate students involved with after school activities. The late buses leave the school at 4:30pm on Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday, and 3:30pm on Thursday.
Note:The Framingham Public School system schedules half day sessions that McAuliffe Regional CPS does not. On those infrequent occasions, late buses will not be available. These dates are listed in Friday Folders and on the calendar. Any changes to this schedule are communicated to the McAuliffe Regional CPS community as soon as they become available.
Framingham Bus Schedule
Here is the general latest Framingham Bus Schedule. Framingham will occasionally make changes to this schedule, especially on snow days and in other special circumstances.
Student Pick Up and Drop Off Procedure (Drivers and Commuters Outside Framingham)
We will no longer be able to use the church parking lot across Clinton Street from McAuliffe Regional CPS, shown as E on the map below. This changes the procedures for both Drop Off and Pick Up of students.
For Drop Off, please use the following procedure:
- Use Entrance A off Route 126/Concord Street. DO NOT use Entrance E.
- Exit behind and around the school at D.
- Parents may not use B or C at any time.
For Pick Up, please use the following procedure:
- Use Entrance A off Route 126/Concord Street. DO NOT use Entrance E.
- Parent may not use B or C at any time.
- Park in the lot, then walk over to the school entrance to meet your student(s). Students will not be allowed to walk across the parking lot alone, since staff will have difficulty determining which parents have arrived, given the bus and car traffic.
- Exit behind and around the school at D.
- ***If the parking lot is FULL, Exit behind and around the school at D. Park your car on the right side of Clinton Street, and walk back to the school entrance to meet your student(s).
- If you choose to park in F at the Gym on a Tuesday afternoon for school meeting, please drive around the Gym to exit once you have met your student(s).
