9. Normal student flow of traffic entering and exiting school property is via the school entrance that is closest to the cafeteria side of the building. This is necessary so as not to impede the flow of the school bus traffic.
10. If a student’s parking privileges are revoked, there will be no refund for the amount paid for the pass.
11. Vehicle Searches​ – ​Because vehicles in school parking areas are on school property (please refer to
page 31, “Definition of Terms”, “School Property”), they are subject to the same nature of searches as those applying to a person. Search of a student’s vehicle shall be permitted only when there is a reasonable belief that said student has in his or her vehicle items either in violation of federal, state, or local laws or in violation of school board policy. A search shall be conducted by a designated school official in the presence of another member of the school staff. Any illegal materials discovered as a result of a search may be used as evidence against the student in disciplinary, juvenile, or criminal proceedings.
12. The number of parking passes issued for each season is limited by the parking spaces available on the high school campus. Due to the limited number of spaces, no student can be guaranteed a pass. Students are encouraged to submit their applications in a timely manner according to the application procedures determined by administration. Students will be given the opportunity to apply for passes according to seniority.

MISCELLANEOUS INFORMATION
Academic Participation in Out-Of-School Programs
The departments of the school are active in having students participate in educational programs of a competitive nature, outside of school. In some events, the activities begin at the district level and advance through various stages at the state level. In such events that are school-sponsored and approved, the district will accommodate the program through the state level. Some continue to the national level, and for a student to be considered for participation at that level he/she must have received a first place finish or award at the state level. This policy also applies to interscholastic athletics.
