Georgetown, it’s that magical time of year again — School opens Wednesday. Get those freeloaders out of your house and back to school. 🚸🚌

🎒 A Few Important Reminders
• Extra Caution at bus stops — Kids will be everywhere.
• Slow down in school zones — Kids move unpredictably.
• Watch for buses — Flashing lights + extended stop sign = you stop. No exceptions.

🚫 No Drop Off at GMHS
There is no student drop-off allowed at GMHS. None. Zero. Zip. If you attempt it, you will meet a very polite Georgetown Police Officer giving you the “we talked about this” look.

✅ Perley is the Recommended Drop Off Location
We strongly recommend using Perley for morning drop-off. It’s safer, smoother, and significantly less likely to cause back-ups on Maple and Winter

👮 We’ll Be Out Monitoring
Officers will be watching bus routes, crosswalks, and morning traffic to help keep everyone safe. A little patience goes a long way during the first days of the school year.

Our thoughts and prayers are with the family, friends, and counterparts at the Boxford Police Department following the recent passing of Officer Robert “Smitty” Smith.

Rob was a true friend to many here at GPD, and he will be deeply missed.

Rest easy, Smitty. Your service will not be forgotten.
