Class of 2019 – With the new school year quickly approaching, we want to inform you of the procedures for obtaining a student parking sticker. As in the past, all seniors will be eligible for a parking permit who meet the following criteria:
- Possess or be eligible for a standard driver’s license during the 2018-19 school year
- Have a vehicle for daily use
- Attended Alive@25
- Parent attended Alive@25 (next session offered on August 23 at 7pm in theater)
Seniors can apply by bringing the following documentation to Mrs. Pennucci in the Attendance Office (located in the previous school store area by cafeteria) on July 30, July 31, August 1 and August 20-23 between the hours of 8 am to 11 am and 12:30 pm to 2:00 pm:
- Valid Standard NJ Driver’s License (PHOTOCOPY) (Agricultural License will not be accepted)
- Valid Motor Vehicle Registration for vehicle(s) being registered (PHOTOCOPY)
- Valid Motor Vehicle Insurance documentation (PHOTOCOPY)
- A completed Student Automobile Permit application (click here)
- A completed Random Drug Testing form (click here)
- $75 fee for a full year permit (Checks made out to Voorhees High School)
Please bring your own photocopies as photocopies will not be made at the school.
For the Class of 2019, eligibility for a parking spot during the 2018-2019 school year will be contingent upon the student’s discipline record during the junior year. Any student having served two (2) or more out of school suspensions and/or had a violation of the Substance Abuse policy during the junior year, will not be eligible for a parking spot this year.
Rules for student parking have been included in this email, see below. They will also be listed in the Student-Parent Handbook on the Voorhees High School website for 2018-2019 (http://www.nhvweb.net/vhs/home).
Sincerely,
Christopher Maslonka
Assistant Principal for Class of 2019
Voorhees High School
