There is one more opportunity to secure your Junior an on-campus parking space for this year. The PTSA is holding an online Auction for three on-campus parking spaces.
Why are we Auctioning off these Parking Spaces? The PTSA purchased the Parking Spaces from the school for the purpose of fundraising that will go directly back to the school through Academic or Wellness programs such as Mini-Grants for amazing Teacher-led Projects, Teacher Stipends for the classroom, Honor Roll Recognition, Scholarships, and Wellness Programs. Donations through our Membership Drive are currently at a fraction of previous years and proceeds from this Auction will help us maintain these programs that impact all students.
Who is eligible to Participate? Only Juniors in the current year who have not already been awarded a space through the Junior Lottery may participate. Seniors have already been awarded their spaces, and Sophomores cannot be issued spaces in any circumstance.
Click here to learn more! But don't wait ... the auction ends at noon, Friday 9/23!
