Student Parking Hangtag Distribution – Transition Day – Monday, August 25, 2025

To be considered for a parking permit, a student must have a valid driver’s license and be obligation-free by the application deadline (August 11th at 3 PM). Both seniors and juniors are encouraged to apply; however, preference will be given to seniors. If there are sufficient spaces, juniors will be considered. 

Approved student drivers will receive their parking hangtags and assigned parking spot numbers on Transition Day between 12:30-2:00 PM in the cafeteria.

• Parking spots are assigned first-come, first-served
• If you want to park near friends, you must arrive together
• Your hangtag number will match your assigned parking spot

All students must have a valid hangtag displayed to park on school grounds starting the first day of school.
