23-24 Student Parking Permits
We will begin issuing parking permits on the first day of school. Permits are not required to be on cars until September 5th. Due to staff trainings that are on-going, we will not accept in-person submissions or payments prior to the first day of school.
Please submit your completed parking registration form, a picture of the front of the student’s driver’s license, and the current proof-of-insurance for the vehicle, to IHSParking@friscoisd.org. The $50 yearly permit may be paid through www.onlineschoolfees.com. Once we’ve received the emailed documents and the fee has been paid online, a permit will be issued and delivered to your student’s classroom.
