Parking Regulations
Due to limited parking spaces in each school’s student lot, only Senior students are eligible to purchase a parking permit and park in the school lot in accordance with the following guidelines. `Juniors will be notified through the Deans' Office if parking is available to their class (Only DHS). Freshmen and Sophomores are not eligible to park on campus during the school day. This includes all special testing days, late start days, and final exams during the school year.
Students are urged to use school transportation or walk to school.
Parking Lot Guidelines
