Parking Regulations for Students
Priority for student parking at RHHS is given to seniors as well as juniors whose academic program requires them to leave during the school day. These students must attend the Safe Driving Seminar prior to obtaining a parking permit. Other juniors may also attend the seminar and will be issued permits if any spaces remain. One parent must attend the seminar and stay for the entire presentation with their student(s). All outstanding school obligations must be cleared before obtaining a parking permit. After attending a Safe Driving Seminar, students may purchase a parking permit for $15 and must display it in their vehicle at all times while on RHHS property. Students should bring the signed application they received from the Safe Driving Seminar as well as their driver’s license to the front office when purchasing a permit. Students who do not display their permit are subject to the provisions elaborated on the Parking Permit Application. The guidelines and rules for student parking are enumerated on the Vehicle Registration Form. Students who display forged/copied RHHS permits in their vehicle on property will be subject to disciplinary action, which may include suspension and loss of parking privileges.
