Please contact John Muehlberger with questions.

WHO IS ELIGIBLE FOR A PARKING PERMIT?

• All St. James Academy sophomores, juniors, and seniors who possess a valid Kansas Driver’s License are eligible for a parking permit. Any St. James Academy student who drives to school MUST REGISTER their car.

WHAT IS THE PROCESS TO REGISTER A CAR?

• A student who is eligible must register for a parking spot with St. James Academy.  A $75 fee will be assessed per parking spot and must be paid at the time of registration.  Parking permits will be mailed to each student driver before the first day of school.

CAN I CHOOSE MY PARKING SPOT?

• Seniors, Juniors, and Sophomores (limited) are given the opportunity to select their parking spot in their designated lot.  There are limited parking spaces available for Sophomores due to a lack of parking.  Freshmen are not allowed to drive since we don’t have enough parking spaces. Each permit will contain the assigned parking spot number.

CAN I TRADE PARKING SPOTS?

• No. Students are required to park in the designated spot assigned to them.

WHERE DO I PUT MY PARKING PERMIT?

• Parking permit hang tags are to be hung from the rearview mirror and be visible.

WHAT IF THERE ARE TWO STUDENT DRIVERS IN ONE FAMILY?

• Multiple drivers are allowed on our campus, but each driver must be registered individually and pay the fee.

WHAT IF A STUDENT DOES NOT HAVE A DRIVER’S LICENSE YET?

• A student may purchase their spot in advance if it is still available, provided they plan to begin driving sometime during the school year. This option is available to sophomores, juniors, and seniors.

ARE FRESHMEN ALLOWED TO DRIVE TO SCHOOL?

• Freshmen are not allowed to drive.

WHAT IF A STUDENT DRIVES A DIFFERENT CAR TO SCHOOL?

• Whenever a student drives a different car to school than the one registered, the student must notify the front office and obtain a temporary pass and a parking permit.

WHAT IF A STUDENT HAS AN INJURY AND NEEDS TO PARK CLOSER FOR A PERIOD OF TIME?

• The student should email the Dean of Students stating the injury and the time needed to temporarily move.

WHAT IF SOMEONE IS PARKED IN MY SPOT?

• If someone is parked in your designated spot, please park in the visitor parking area and notify the Dean of Students or the School Resource Officer.
