- Participate in the Academic Study Hall. Remember, if you are at study hall, your parent needs to notify the front office when they arrive to pick you up so that you can be dismissed.
Student Drivers
Student drivers, it’s time to purchase your parking decals from the business office if you have not already done so. You will need a copy of your driver’s license, auto insurance, and vehicle registration, your vehicle plate number, as well as a parent signature to complete the process. Applications for parking decals are available in the business office. Friday is the deadline to have your parking decal in place to park on campus. Students who turn 16 throughout the year can fill out the forms once they turn 16 and get their decals at that time.
