Student Parking

Driving to school is a privilege, not a right. Failure to comply with all student behavior and parking rules could result in the suspension or revocation of your driving privilege.

All drivers must purchase a parking permit. To purchase a parking permit, students must present the following items at the time of purchase:

1. Valid Driver's License
2. Completed Random Drug Test Form (if you have one on file, you do not have to complete another one)
3. Completed WWHS Parking Information Form with parent/student signatures

• All fees must be paid before purchasing a parking permit. (If a student owes fees, he/she may pay those at the time of purchasing a permit or must provide a receipt for the fee in question).
• The parking fee is $50. The fee for permits purchased during 2nd semester of the school year is $25.
• Students must maintain a 2.5 GPA in order to maintain a parking pass (See WCS Board Policy 6325).

• Parking permits must be placed hanging from the rearview mirror and must be displayed (numbered side out) at all times when the vehicle is parked on school grounds.
• Vehicles should have keys removed and should remain locked at all times while parked on school grounds.
• A student must not lend, borrow and/or sell a permit.
• Students found with drugs, alcohol, or weapons in their vehicle will lose permission to park on campus and parking pass will be revoked.
• Students must park in a student parking space while on campus.

Violations include, but are not limited to:

• Parking in an unauthorized area (handicapped spot, fire lane, no parking area, unmarked parking spaces, etc.)
• Parking in any other location besides a student spot
• Failure to display parking tag from rearview mirror (in plain sight, numbered side out)
• Parking on campus without a valid parking tag
• Careless or reckless driving on campus (including spinning tires)
• Returning to parking lot without permission from front office
• Refusal to obey traffic laws and teachers or parking attendants
• Chronic Tardiness

Any student who has lost their driving privileges and continues to drive is subject to have their vehicle towed without warning and at their own expense. West Wilkes High School/Wilkes County Schools is not responsible for the costs associated with towing and/or any damages to the vehicle during the towing process.
