Drop-off, Pick-up and Traffic Flow

To improve student safety and support a smoother flow of traffic, St. Mary's Academy has introduced an updated Campus Drop-off, Pick-up, and Traffic Flow plan for the 2026-2027 school year. The updated traffic flow includes:

• a newly widened lane for drop-off and pick-up near the Stafford Street entrance. Only use this zone if your daughter is entering the school through the Alumnae Hall doors.
• drop-off and pick-up are on the left side of the lane throughout our entire campus.

Please review the instructions and campus map, below and attached, and familiarize yourself with traffic flow and designated Drop-off and Pick-up Zones.

Decide the entrance door your daughter will use.

• If your daughter is entering the school through the Alumnae Hall entrance: Merge into the new Drop-off and Pick-up Lane at the Stafford Zone (far left lane). Students will walk to the Alumnae Hall entrance via the new walkway.
• If your daughter is entering the school through the Inner Courtyard or Academy Road entrances: Remain in the Through Lane until you reach your chosen Drop-off and Pick-up Zone, then merge into the Drop-off and Pick-up Lane.

Driving to a parking lot? Student drivers and faculty/staff should remain in the Through Lane and proceed directly to their designated parking lot. Watch for pedestrians.

Golden Rules

• Use the left lane only for drop-off and pick-up.
• Pull forward as far as possible before stopping.
• Students should be ready to enter or exit vehicle promptly.
• Watch carefully for students, pedestrians, and other vehicles.
