Student Parking Information

On-campus parking is a privilege offered to students at Mary Persons High School.  The Administration will be in charge of student parking.  All money collected from parking fees and fines will be used as the Administration sees fit.

Parking permits will be issued to students in the following priority:
1) Seniors       2) Juniors       3) Other underclassmen

Parking permits are $35. They are non-refundable.  Lost, suspended or replacement permits will cost the same.  If you lose a permit, you must replace it in order to continue parking on Monroe County school property.  Students’ vehicles permitted to park on-campus must be registered with the school.  Parking permits must be displayed on the designated area of all vehicles (lower left hand corner of the front windshield) and all vehicles must be parked in their assigned space or lot.

Parking permits will be issued only to those students who meet the following criteria:
Possession of a valid Class C or Class D Georgia Driver’s License
Updated and physical proof of insurance
Automobile Tag Number
Payment of parking fee.

Parking privileges can be revoked by the Administration because of irresponsible behavior, unexcused tardies to school or poor academic performance.  Vehicles must be operated in a safe and proper manner at all times on any Monroe County school property.  Any student who has not been issued a parking permit or whose permit has been revoked will not be allowed to park on any Monroe County school property during school hours.  

(Note: New policies may be developed and implemented when the need arises.)
