Updated: Senior Parking Lottery

SENIOR PARKING LOTTERY FORM

There are a limited number of senior reserved parking spaces in the Atrium and Tennis lots and they will be assigned randomly on Friday morning, Oct. 30th. You have until 5:00 pm on Thursday, Oct. 29th to enter the lottery.

You must be signed into your Richland Two e-mail account to enter the lottery. Please note, entering the lottery is not a guarantee that you will receive a reserved parking space. Students who do not receive a reserved space will be issued a parking tag for the upper lot. You are only allowed to enter the lottery once. You must be classified as a “Senior” — i.e. in 12th grade — on August 31st to be eligible for consideration. You can pick up your parking tag beginning Monday, the first day of Phase 2 for students at 9:00 am in C-148 from Mr. Jackson.

Seniors who receive a reserved parking space through the lottery have two weeks from the first day of in person classes of Phase 2 to claim their tag. After this day, the space will be given up to the next eligible lottery senior. You must have the “SV Parking Agreement Form” completed and signed before you will be issued a tag.

Here is the link to the Parking Agreement Form, https://docs.google.com/document/d/1pAS05lwWtHNjkMHCl1ZcOlFpnAWm6FGoEBwsnLCLGuA/edit?usp=sharing . You must also have taken and completed the Alive @ 25 course.
