Bay Port Students and Families:

The student parking process for the upcoming school year has been modified to accommodate the large number of student drivers and the limited parking spaces. Students will not be assigned a specific parking spot or lot but will be required to register their vehicle and display a current parking tag when parked at school during the school day.

There are three student parking lots: Lot A, Lot B and Lot C, which are identified by signs in the parking lots. Students may only park in spots with white lines. Staff parking is behind the building and in the athletic lot and is identified by blue lines. An additional overflow lot has also been added by the tennis courts that can be used by students.

Please note that the athletic entrance door, closest to Lot C will close at 7:30 am each morning. Students arriving after 7:30 will need to use the main entrance at Bay Port.

Permit/Registration Process

Students will be required to register their vehicle and display a new parking tag each year. All current drivers must have their vehicles registered by Friday, September 13, 2024. Applications can be submitted to the main office starting on Wednesday, August 28 from 7:00-3:30 and during Open House that evening from 6:30-8:00 pm. A registration table will also be available during lunch hours on the first two weeks of school.

Additional Information

• Parking will be enforced on school days from 7:00 am to 2:40 pm during the school year.
• Students who obtain their drivers license during the school year can apply for a parking permit at the main office.
• Students should not park in the visitor parking spots at any time.
• There is no charge for parking.

The two page parking application is linked here and attached to this email. Printed copies are also available at the Bay Port main office, Monday-Friday from 7:00-3:30.

Please use the GoFan app or website for student passes and game tickets for all home games. Once you pull up the pass or ticket from the app/website on your phone, please do not click on use pass or use ticket until you are at the gate with the ticket taker. If you use the ticket before you get to the gate, you will not be able to enter without purchasing another ticket.
