Attention Student Drivers🚗💨

Planning to park on campus or paint your senior spot next school year? Read carefully—parking paperwork is moving 100% digital this year!
Everything will be handled through School Cash Online (SCO). Here is what you need to know:
➡️100% Digital: When you or your parents log in to SCO, you’ll be prompted to read the parking agreement and upload a copy of your valid driver's license, current proof of insurance, and vehicle registration.
➡️Upload First, Pay Second: You won't be able to submit payment on SCO until all your required documents are uploaded. Once documents are uploaded, the option to pay will appear.
➡️Paying with Cash? Please stop by the front office with your payment of $45 (exact change, please). Once that is done, your SCO account will show a zero-dollar Parking Permit that you will select so that you can upload your files.
➡️Hang Tag Pickup: Parking hang tags will only be handed out once we verify that none of your uploaded paperwork is expired. This will not be a same-day service
➡️Painting your Spot? Class Dues must be paid; painting fee is $25, paid in SCO or to Ms. Short. Spot assignments are first come, first served. Paint and Supplies are not supplied. Painting sessions are Aug 1 and Aug 8 from 7 until 11.

📅 Mark Your Calendars – Important Dates:
July 27th: Class Dues go live on SCO
July 28th: Parking Permits & Senior Spot Painting go live on SCO

Get those documents ready so you're good to go when it opens!
