Parking
Parking
at York High School is a privilege and not a
right. This privilege is extended to some students because of the
academic program in which they are involved. Students in work programs,
in mentorships and practicums, with medical excuses, or special
permission of the Principal have permission by permit to have vehicles
on school property. Others will have the privilege of parking on school
property by virtue of their senior classification.
Students
who do not have permits to park but who
have an emergency that requires them to drive to school should call the
attendance office. These emergency parking permits are issued on a
day-to-day basis.
School
Parking Regulations
In accordance with School Board Policy, the rules and regulations for
student parking have been established by the Principal of York High
School. The parking regulations are designed to minimize disruption and
to provide a safe and secure environment for students. They are not
meant to be a burden on anyone; however, all students are expected to
drive in an appropriate manner. In instances where an offense
constitutes a violation of the law, law enforcement officials may be
called.
Students
having alcohol, tobacco, or drugs/drug
paraphernalia on school grounds will have their parking privilege
revoked for the year.
Referrals
for any discipline infraction may result in a loss of parking
privileges.
Any
conduct that is disruptive to the normal
operation of the school or that is classified as a violation of the law
may result in loss of student parking privileges.
Parking
privileges will be suspended for unexcused tardies to school:
4th unexcused tardy = 1 week loss of parking
5th unexcused tardy = 3 week loss of parking
6th unexcused tardy = loss of parking for remainder of semester

show your driver’s license. Parking

Parking Fees are $100 per year—ninety-five percent of which
