Seniors who wish to sign-up for parking can do so on August 12 (1-3 PM) or August 20 (9-11 AM) in the Central Complex. Please bring the following items with you:
- Driver’s license
- Current registration/owner’s card
- Current insurance card
- Cash or check for $20.00 payable to Penn Manor School District
- a signed drug screening consent form will also be needed. Seniors can pick up the drug screening consent form during parking sign-up. This form, which must be signed by both student and parent, must be returned to the HS office by the first day of school or the student may not park on the property. If your name is already in the drug screen pool from 2009-2010, you need not submit a new form.
- Remember, graduation projects should be complete. To be eligible for a parking permit, you will need to make sure you have completed the career matchmaker quiz, reviewed and saved three schools or training institutes to your portfolio and updated your resume on Career Cruising. For more information visit the graduation project blog at http://blogs.pennmanor.net/graduationproject/class-of-2011/.
Juniors may sign up for remaining spots during the first week of school.
Juniors may pick up a drug screening consent form on the first day of school. These must be signed by both student and parent and returned when purchasing a parking tag during lunches. Juniors should refer to the “what to bring” list in order to be able to purchase a parking pass.
Attention juniors and seniors! During homeroom on January 7 we will have members of the class of 2009 share about their experience during their first semester in college. They will share what enabled them to be successful this past semester and what they did in high school to prepare for the challenges of college. If you are interested in hearing from the members of the class of 2009, please sign up in the main office.
All seniors are encouraged to complete the FAFSA form. Even if you are not certain of your post- high school plans it is important to fill out this federal financial aid application. Seniors will be given more information at a January 21st class meeting but are encouraged to begin the process now as colleges have varying financial aid deadlines.
