Parking Form and Application
Parking applications for rising 12th Grade Students will open March 17, 2025. Rising 11th Grade Students will be able to apply beginning Monday, April 7, 2025. Students applying must have a Class C, D or M license by the start of the 2025-26 school year.
Special Notice: Due to the increased number of students participating in a non-traditional school day, we will not be able to honor any special parking considerations for students involved in programs like Out of District, Dual Enrollment, IE2, Teaching as a Profession, athletics, band, internships, or any similar programs. We recognize this is a huge inconvenience, but there is no way to prioritize who would receive spaces and there simply are not enough spots to fill all needs.
Please Note: You must use your Student ID number to access the application. The application will not be shared, students must login with their Student ID.
Payment for Parking
Payment for parking at West Forsyth will be completed via SchoolPay. The cost is $135.
Parking Pass Pick-up
Parking Pass Pickup Requirements:
All parking tags (Green Lot, Navy Lot, Gold Lot) are pre-assigned by administration. We cannot entertain requests for parking in specific locations on campus.
Any parking tags that are not paid for and picked up by the first day of school may be forfeited and given to someone on the waiting list. If you do not have your full valid driver's license by August 5, 2025 (the first day of school), you will forfeit your parking space.
Students must pick up their tag in person. Students must bring the following items:
- Your valid Class C or D driver's license (or Class M if riding a motorcycle). Learners permits will not be accepted.
- Evidence of payment:
- Payment online: At this time, payment must be completed online through SchoolPay. Proof of payment (printed receipt, phone receipt, etc.) must be shown for parking tag pickup.
- You must bring a printed copy of your online receipt.

Parking Rules and Regulations
By applying for a parking spot, students agree to abide by all rules and regulations.
Parking is a privilege.
-WFHS Parking Pass MUST be displayed on the rear window, visible for administration. Students may NOT give, sell, or transfer their parking space to another student. If this is done, parking privileges will be immediately revoked. WFHS Administration handles all parking assignments and transfers.
-Students cannot park in faculty-designated areas during school hours. Students parking improperly, in the faculty parking lot, in the bus lane, in visitor designated spaces, in restricted or reserved zones, or in non-registered vehicles can be booted, fined, have their parking permit revoked, and have their vehicle towed at the students’ expense without prior notification.
-Students must be parked in a designated parking space, within their assigned parking lot. Failure to park in a designated space, and failure to park in the assigned parking lot may result in suspension / revocation of parking privileges.
-Students MUST notify the main office to drive a vehicle to school other than the vehicle that has been registered.
-Horn blowing, tire squealing, fast starts, loud mufflers, and excessive noise are not allowed in the parking lot at any time before and after school hours.
-Students MUST obey the 10-mph speed limit at all times on school property. Pedestrians and school buses always have the right-of-way.
-There is to be no loitering in the parking lot. Students must leave their vehicle and the parking lot immediately upon arriving at school and then enter the school building. Students may not re-enter the parking lot during the day without written permission from an administrator or a checkout pass from the attendance office. Vehicles may not be used as a locker.
-Illegal substances such as alcohol, tobacco products, lighters, matches, drugs, drug paraphernalia, weapons, gang symbols/literature may not be in any vehicle on school property. The school administration has the right to search all areas of your vehicle when on school property.
-All students parking on the West Forsyth High School campus are required to have liability and personal injury insurance on the registered vehicle throughout the entire school year. In cases of accidents occurring on campus, it is up to the individuals involved to settle damages. The school is not responsible for any damages, loss, or theft to any vehicle or its contents while on campus.
-Students should take the necessary precautions to prevent loss to their vehicle and its contents by keeping the vehicle locked at all times, not giving the keys to anyone else, not leaving valuable items inside the vehicle while on campus and obeying all the above regulations. West Forsyth High School will not be held responsible for damage to automobiles.
-Students understand that turning in a parking application does not guarantee a spot. Parking is lottery-based and each junior / senior that applies has an equal chance at receiving a space. WFHS Administration does not prioritize students participating in Internships, WBL, IE2, dual enrollment/MOWR, sports programs, clubs, or other morning/ afternoon school activities.
Disciplinary action for violations of any school rules may result in suspension or loss of parking privileges.
- 1st offense for skipping may result in 1 week suspension of parking.
