Bellevue School District Student Parking Policy:

“By issuance of this permit, the Bellevue School District does not assume liability for any property damage to any private automobile parked on the property. The owner/operator(s) of all private vehicles accept responsibility for their own property & agree that they are parking at their own risk.”

Bellevue School District administrators have the right to search your vehicle upon request if it is on Bellevue High School property. The vehicles are also subject to random sweeps by canine units trained in detecting illegal substances.

Purpose of Parking Fees
The purpose is to assure the safety & security of Bellevue, and to deter students from violating safe driving & parking practices. Funds generated by parking fees are used to pay for supervision of all parking lots on BHS campus, upgrades, maintenance, costs related to parking registration & maintenance of ticket records, parking facility, & other school-related costs.

Bellevue High School Parking Permit Guidelines:

Student parking areas are open to all students with a valid parking permit during the hours of 6:30 am – 3:30 pm. Parking without a permit may result in your vehicle being towed.

  • All fines must be paid prior to purchasing a parking permit. This includes parking fines accumulated in previous years. Fines may be paid online.
  • The student parking fee is $100. For students on Free/Reduced lunch, the fee is $50 (contact Parking Specialist).
  • Running Start & those attending WANIC classes at other schools must have a permit to park at Bellevue. Non-Bellevue WANIC students may park for free after a parking application has been completed and a permit has been issued at home school and shown to the parking specialist.
  • Students must complete the online application, which acknowledges they/parent or guardian have read the rules and regulations. Public transportation is also encouraged.
  • Priority will be given to carpools, then seniors, then juniors. Any remaining spots will then be awarded to licensed sophomores.
  • Students may request to be put on the waitlist if they get their license after all permits are sold. Please note that being waitlisted does not guarantee you a permit, and you will not be allowed to park on campus while on the waitlist.
