Senior Parking Lottery

Seniors get first access to on-campus parking at AFHS. Spaces are limited and assigned through a lottery, not first-come, first-served.

Set a reminder. The lottery closes at midnight on July 31 and there are no extensions.

Key Details

• Cost: $200 (set by the district - none of this fee stays with the school)
• Seniors go first. If spaces remain after the senior lottery, juniors may enter a second round.
• Spaces are limited. There are typically very few left after the senior round.
• Spaces are not transferable. Assignments must go through the school.
• NC driver license required. Temporary licenses or out-of-state licenses are not accepted.
• Not licensed yet? The school can work with students who will have their license by the first week of school. Enter the lottery now, then contact Asst. Principal Will Kasapidis ([email protected]).
• Fines and fees must be cleared before your student can receive a parking assignment.

How It Works - Senior Lottery

Step 1: Enter the Lottery

Your student enters the senior parking lottery online through the AFHS website. Do not pay the fee or submit registration forms yet. Wait until you get confirmation.

Enter the Senior Parking Lottery → (AFHS student parking page)

Step 2: Recipients Notified

Seniors who receive a parking space will be notified via the school website.

Step 3: Complete Registration

1. Submit the registration form (linked starting Aug 3)
2. Pay the $200 parking fee through Online School Payments
3. Pay any existing fines and fees, including the senior activity fee

Step 4: Pick Up Your Parking Pass

Spot assignments are random. Showing up first does not get you a better spot.

Round 2 - If Spaces Remain

If spaces remain after the senior lottery, a second round opens to juniors and seniors.

• Enter Round 2: August 10-13 (closes at midnight on Aug 13)
• Recipients notified: August 14 via WCPSS student email
• Pick up pass: The week before school starts at AFHS

Important Reminders

• Do not pay until you are confirmed. The fee is non-refundable and should only be paid after your student receives a parking space.
• Your student's course schedule does not affect parking. Reduced schedules, CCP courses, etc. require family transportation arrangements.
• Students may not park on campus until they have an assigned space and a posted parking tag.
• Always confirm on the AFHS student parking page. This hub summarizes the process, but the school's page is the official word on dates, fees, and any changes.
