All students who park on school property are required to have a valid parking permit clearly displayed on the rear windshield, on the driver’s side.
Violations:
Students will be penalized for violating the school parking policy. Violations may be reported by any North faculty or staff member or concerned adult.
The following are considered violations:
- Providing false or misleading information
- No current permanent or temporary sticker is properly displayed
- Parking is only allowed in designated areas. Do not park in staff parking spaces marked with blue lines
- Not parking inside the lines
- Using another person’s sticker (BOTH parties will be ticketed)
- Driving too fast or recklessly
- Not following the normal traffic pattern
- Squealing tires (includes entering and exiting the lot)
- Not yielding to the school bus
- Demonstrating a lack of courtesy (such as cutting in line, not taking turns when merging, etc.)
- Making too much noise (engines or stereo)
- Having any display (including bumper stickers) that does not reflect a positive image for Appleton North High School
- Unsafe conduct (including driving with persons hanging out the window, on the outside of the vehicle, etc.)
- Misuse of a parking permit
Searches:
The school and its officials retain the right to conduct searches in accordance with Board of Education policy and Wisconsin law. Among the reasons for initiating a search are suspicions of concealing alcohol, illicit drugs, disruptive material, weapons, contraband, or other items, which pose a danger to health, safety, or an educational environment. Discovery of illegal materials will result in a legal referral and appropriate disciplinary consequences, which can include suspension and/or expulsion. Designated school officials, employees, or agents may search a student’s vehicle on school property, which could conceal the aforementioned illegal materials, without the consent of the student, without notifying the student, and without obtaining a search warrant.
Penalties:
Students who receive a citation are responsible for paying fines issued by the Appleton Police Department. Failure to pay fines or continued violations of school parking policies may result in the removal of parking privileges for the rest of the school year. Vehicles parked on school property after privileges have been revoked may be towed at the owner’s expense.
Parking rules are in effect on school days.
