| Q: | Where do I drop-off my child? |
| A: | During the months of September, October, May and June, drop-off your child at the lower fields of Elm Bank (900 Washington Street, Wellesley) with an LX Coach. During the winter months of November - April, drop-off your child at 167 Linden Street, Wellesley (between JoS. A. Bank and Unleashed). |
| Q: | How will I know who the LX Coaches are? |
