Student Handbook - The Taft School

DAY STUDENT INFORMATION
Day students are an integral part of the Taft. As a school we seek to give day students every opportunity
to immerse themselves in all aspects of the residential life experience. Certain regulations and
expectations pertain only to day students, and these are specified below. More information regarding
day student life at Taft can be found on the Taft School website.

DROP-OFF
Day students should not arrive at school earlier than 7:00 a.m. but are expected to arrive to campus
at least ten minutes before their first commitment each day. The area of the “Main Circle” in the
front of the school closest to the building is reserved for day student parents who are picking up or
dropping off their children. Although parking is prohibited in this area, our security staff does have
some difficulty keeping it clear.
PARKING
Day students must park their cars only in the parking lot across the street from the main entrance to
the school. Day student cars should have a Taft parking tag. These tags will be issued at the beginning
of the school year upon completion of an automobile registration form. Day students should never
drive their cars on the campus side of Route 6. Day students parking at the Cruikshank Athletic
Center should use the main lot and not the small lot by the rink.
