Transportation and Parking

The Board of Education provides bus transportation for students who live more than 1.5 miles from school. First Student provides this service for us. Specific bus routes operate in the morning and afternoon.

Families are welcome to download the FirstView app to assist in tracking bus routes. 

If you previously had the First View App, you'll need to delete the original version and download the new version, First View 1.0.

Families who drive their students to school should use the West Events entrance drop-off circle or the Dunham Road drop-off circle. To minimize traffic, we encourage eligible families to use the provided bus transportation.

Student Parking on Campus

Consideration for on-campus parking is granted to Seniors eligible for busing and enrolled in Early Bird Classes, the Intro to Teaching Program, Work Study Program, or the Internship Program. Student attendance, fees, grades, credits, GPA, and discipline history are reviewed. Juniors are only eligible for on-campus parking if they are enrolled in the Intro to Teaching Program, Work Study Program, or the Internship Program. 

Students eligible to apply for a parking permit will receive the application and additional information via email on April 7, 2025.

NOTE: Students who park in staff parking, visitor parking, bus lot or a student spot that is not assigned to them are subject to a parking violation, ticket, and/or having their vehicle towed at the owner’s expense.

Visitor Parking

If you are visiting our campus, please follow the signs to the visitor parking lot, which is located on the north side of Norfolk Street, to the west of the Mustang Statue.
