How to purchase a parking pass:

Step 1: Please read the parking rules listed below carefully. Fill out all required fields on this form, including uploading a picture of your driver's license and vehicle registration where indicated on this form. To access the form, students must be logged in with their Lancaster account.
Questions about parking can be emailed to amccarthy@lancasterschools.org.

Step 2: Pick up and pay ($50) for a Parking Pass on September 3rd, 8:00 am-2:00 pm in room 122. Once the school year starts, you can go to room #102 (Assistant Principal's office) to purchase your parking hang tag. We accept checks made payable to Lancaster Central School District (LCSD) or EXACT cash. We DO NOT have change to give, if you are paying in cash, please have exact payment. We are not set up to accept credit card payments.

Step 3: Your parking pass must be displayed on your rearview mirror facing out whenever you are parked on campus.

LANCASTER HIGH SCHOOL DRIVING/PARKING RULES:

1. Driving to school is a privilege, not a right. All general rules of the building also apply to the parking lots and school grounds. Violation of any school rules/policy, including the Driving/Parking rules, may result in parking privileges being suspended or revoked without a refund. This will be reinforced by administration.
2. The parking hang tag issued to the student must be visible at all times, on the rear-view mirror facing out. 
3. If your car breaks down and you borrow a car temporarily, you may move your parking pass from your primary vehicle to your temporary vehicle. Report your temporary car to Room #102. Parking hang tags cannot be transferred to other students; if done, the hang tag will be confiscated without a refund.
4. It is the responsibility of the student to report lost or stolen permits to room 102. Lost/stolen permits found in use will be confiscated.
5. Students must obey the posted speed limit and drive in a prudent and safe manner.
6. The school retains the authority to conduct routine patrols of the student parking lots and inspections of the exterior and interior of student vehicles while on school property.
7. All parking violations/tickets are issued by the Lancaster town police department. The parking violation fine is $25.00 and is payable to the Lancaster Town Court, not the school. It is up to the discretion of the Lancaster police whether a parking ticket is issued; warnings are not given.
8. Students may park in any student spot in the north lot, south lot, or behind the field house lot. There are plenty of student parking spaces available. Please DO NOT park in a faculty spot, in front of the building, in the dumpster lot, or in an unauthorized area. This may result in a parking ticket and/or tow.
9. Please report vehicle make/model and license plate number changes to room 102. Lancaster High School reserves the right to perform checks to ensure that the vehicle registered at the time of the parking permit purchase is the same.
10. Lancaster town police supervise the outside campus area. Please keep your cars locked at all times. Lancaster High School is not responsible for lost/stolen property or damage while on school grounds.
11. Parking permits from previous school years are not valid.
