Student Parking Passes

The information below is intended to support and inform students and families as they request a student parking pass for the 2024-2025 school year.

Key Details

Please keep the following in mind with regard to the student parking process.

• The fee for a student parking space is $200.  This fee is set by the district.  None of this fee is retained by the school.
     
• Seniors are provided an opportunity to seek a parking pass first.  If spaces remain, juniors will have the opportunity to seek a parking space.  There are typically very few spaces left for juniors.  All student spaces are distributed through a lottery process.  
            
• Student course schedule needs are not a factor in distributing parking assignments.  Student choice to engage in a reduced schedule, CCP courses, etc. must involve family arrangements for transportation.
         
• Students must clear fines and fees prior to receiving a parking assignment.
         
• Students must have a current North Carolina driver license per district guidelines.  A temporary license or a license from another state will not be accepted.
         
• Parking spaces are not transferable to other students.  Assignments must happen through the school.
