Dear Students, Parents, Guardians and Caregivers,

Student Parking
Effective Monday, November 4 City Bylaw will be enforcing the student parking lot. Vehicles without a current school issued parking pass will be ticketed. In addition, there have been increasing instances of poor driving and students skipping classes in their vehicles and loitering in the student parking lot during class time. This is not allowed. If you have a prep and wish to be in your vehicle during class time you must leave the parking lot. Finally vehicles with illegal blacked out windows will not be allowed to park on school property.
