High School Parking Expectations

High School Parking Expectations

Parking on campus during school hours is a privilege granted to seniors and juniors (by lottery) students who have obtained a parking permit. Retaining a school parking permit is a privilege that can be revoked at any time. Students who will be a junior or senior during the upcoming school year who have a valid driver's license and insurance are welcome to apply for a parking permit for the school campus or designated parking areas. Those juniors and seniors planning to get their driver's license before October 1 of the upcoming school year are also eligible to apply. All necessary information, including a copy of the driver's license and insurance, must be provided for the application to be considered complete. Incomplete applications will not be considered.

The deadline for submission will be communicated by each high school on the application. NO STUDENT WILL BE ALLOWED TO PARK ON CAMPUS DURING SCHOOL HOURS WITHOUT A PERMIT.
