Student Parking
Student Parking Lot Fees & Policies
The student parking lot is coordinated by the Community Education Department. Permits are sold by priority order (see below) between the hours of 7:30 am – 4:00 pm, starting August 17, 2009. Permit applications are available in the Community Education office (1415-81st Avenue, door #2) daily starting the first week in August or at the bottom of this page. Permits will be available to all licensed drivers, as space allows.
There are two primary areas designated for student parking on Campus. The main student parking lot is located on the east side of the campus (Highway 65 and 79th Avenue). High School students may only park in this student-designated lot; but are not allowed to park in the Able Street staff lots or behind any of the buildings. Learning Alternatives students will park in the NW lot off of able street. Students who use the student parking lot beyond the normal school day should continue to park in the designated student parking area. Students should never park in the areas designated for visitors or staff.
For the safety and security of all, security personnel monitor the student parking lot during the school day. All student vehicles parked in the lot must display a student-parking permit at all times. Parking permits are required beginning on the first day of school. Beginning the first week of school, permit applications, daily permits, and questions should be directed to the security guard during school hours in the parking lot security shed.
Student permits are issued for the school year, by trimester, for limited use, or on a daily basis. Students are strongly encouraged to purchase Annual permits. Trimester Permits are designed for a student who may only need to use the parking facility for one or two trimesters, or who cannot afford the entire Annual Permit fee at one time. Limited Use Trimester Permits are available for a student who will be at school for less than 3 hours a day. These permits might be used by a PSEO student (one who takes college classes during the regular school day as part of his/her curriculum), an OEC (Occupations in Emergency Care) student who attends class here only first and second hour, or a Construction Trades student who is on campus only for an afternoon class.
A student who attends school more than three hours a day must buy a regular Trimester or Annual Permit. Students in the Learning Alternatives program are also required to purchase a student parking permit if a car is driven to school and parked here. Daily permits are issued until gone. The daily lot will then be considered full, and additional students seeking daily parking will be turned away.
Parents should read and understand the policies outlined on the parking permits. Parents must sign permit applications for students under the age of 18. Students receive a copy of the signed permit application so both the parents and students are always aware of rules and regulations.
What to bring to obtain a parking permit
Fees for 2009-2010
Payment Plans are available with valid credit card. Contact Community Education for more information.
Limited use permits are valid for a specific 3-hour (or less) time period
Permit Priority: Permits will be sold beginning the week of August 17th according to these established priorities:
Starting the first day of school, all vehicles parked in the student parking lot must have a permit; those without permits will be ticketed.
Trimester Permits: Students who purchase a Trimester Permit must renew the permit during the last week of the trimester in order to purchase the next trimester permit. Any Trimester Permit not re-purchased by 2:30 p.m. on the last day of the trimester will be sold to someone on the waiting list. There can be no exceptions. It is in the student’s best interest to purchase an Annual Permit at the beginning of the school year to avoid this hassle.
If at any time a student has a question or problem in the parking lot, he/she should talk to the parking lot security guard as soon as possible. Prompt communication is vital. We are here to help, but we cannot address a problem or situation if it is not reported to the security guard. If a student needs help and doesn’t see the security guard, the student should stop in at the high school office or the Community Education office. Parents or students should call the security guard at 763-795-5132 between the hours of 6:30 a.m.- 2:30 p.m. After hours please leave a message on the voice mail or contact Community Education at 763-786-1338.
