Parking
The school parking lot is used primarily for the faculty and staff of Oakland Catholic High School. There are a limited number of parking spots available to the students.
Any student who possesses a valid driver’s license may be eligible for an Oakland Catholic parking permit. Permits will be awarded in the following order: senior, junior, sophomore. In addition, permits will be awarded based on the following criteria:
The intent of the criteria is to allow those students who have no transportation provided by their public school district to attend Oakland Catholic.
If you qualify for a parking permit based on the above criteria, you must fill out a Parking Permit Application. The completed application and photocopy of your license must be submitted to the Main Office by July 27, 2017. Please keep in mind our summer hours are Monday - Thursday 8:00 a.m. - 2:00 p.m. You will be notified by August 17, 2017 if your application was approved, at which time a yearly fee of $125 will be assessed. The $125 must be paid before the permit is issued.
Students are expected to abide by the following parking policies:
Parking in the lot is a privilege and may be denied if school policies are not followed.
The following are causes for revocation of the parking permit:
NOTE: Students may not park in the school lot without a valid parking permit. Vehicles without permits or vehicles that are parked in an unauthorized area will be tagged or towed at the owner’s expense and students will be subject to disciplinary action. Oakland Catholic High School is not responsible for damaged vehicles. Students should have insurance information on hand in case of any vehicle accidents.
