🚗 Austin High School 2026-2027 Parking Permit Pickup & New Parking Information 🚗

As we prepare for the 2026–2027 school year, we want to share important information about STUDENT PARKING PERMITS and UPDATES TO OUR PARKING PROCEDURES. 

🎟️ Parking Permit Pick Up Schedule

Student Parking Permits for the 26-27 School year will be available for pickup in the 2nd Floor Main Office on the following dates:

• Seniors: Wednesday, July 29 | 8:00 AM – 11:00 AM

Only students or their parents / guardians can pick up a parking permit. No picking up permits for friends. Photo ID required for pickup. 

Sophomores are not allowed to purchase permits next year as we do not have enough spots.

📋 Requirements

To receive a parking permit, students must do the following:

• Complete the AHS Student Parking Permit Application 2026-2027 and pay the $100 fee. (This step does not apply to seniors who were already awarded painted spots.)
• Sign and submit the 2026–2027 Student Parking Contract (Print, sign, scan, & upload) (copies also available second floor main office at Austin High)
• Show up during one of the Parking Permit Pickup windows above. Only show up if you have completed the form and paid the fee.

*If you or your family cannot afford the parking fee price please reach out to Linda Garcia for assistance.

🅿️ New Parking Updates for 2026–2027

This year, we’re implementing several updates to improve safety and traffic flow on campus:

• Assigned Parking Lots: All permits are now stickers and will be one of three colors. The color of your sticker allows you to park in the lot of that same color only. You will choose at the time of your pickup which sticker color you want. KEEP IN MIND STICKERS WILL BE DISTRIBUTED ON A FIRST COME FIRST SERVE BASIS.
• Parking Lot Map: Please note where each color lot is located. Please have an idea of which lot you would prefer before you pick up your permit. However, please be aware that lots are limited in number and you may not receive the lot of your preference. Thank you for understanding.
• Stickers: A new 26-27 Sticker must be displayed in order to park in your designated area/spot. STICKERS SHOULD BE PLACED ABOVE THE CAR’S REGISTRATION TAG ON THE FRONT WINDSHIELD.
• Violations, Tickets, Boots, & Towing: The lots will be strictly monitored and in accordance with the Student Parking Contract violators are subject to tickets, boots, and towing. Please read the Student Parking Contract in its entirety.
