Student Parking
About
Limited automobile parking for students is provided as a convenience. Parking is a privilege, not a right. Barrington High School will only issue parking permits to seniors and students enrolled in off-campus courses. Parking is for SENIORS ONLY. Freshmen, sophomores, and juniors DO NOT have permission to park on campus or in the Field of Dreams parking lot.
Barrington 220 and Barrington High School are not responsible for the automobile or its contents, parking is at your own risk. Cars should be locked at all times. If the parking lot is full, it will be the student’s responsibility to locate the parking lot security attendant to secure a parking space. If the student is unable to locate outside security, it will be the student’s responsibility to report to the Student Services Office immediately. School authorities have the right to check/search vehicles on school property. Search, based upon reasonable cause, may include the passenger compartment, engine compartment, and trunk, all containers locked or unlocked in or upon the vehicle.
Consequences
Vehicles not displaying valid parking permits or those illegally parked will be ticketed (by the Village of Barrington) and/or towed at the owner’s expense. Noncompliance with parking rules/regulations and/or truancy may result in loss of parking privileges, SPURS eligibility, tickets issued, and/or towing of the vehicle at the owner’s expense.
