Parking at GHS
All those with a valid GHS parking permit and parking at GHS must park in the appropriate location shown in the map below.
We have had numerous students parking in the bus loop, fire lane, staff lot, grass by the baseball field, etc. Those cars as well as those without a valid GHS parking permit have been and will continue to be ticketed, booted and towed. Parking tickets are $20, boot removal is $100, and towing will cost the vehicle owner over $200. Please make sure your student is following the parking guidelines so they do not lose parking privileges at GHS.
Thanks for your cooperation.
