Student Parking
**Please note that with the Bellerose modernization and construction fully underway, we have a significantly reduced number of student parking stalls available.**
ALL PARKING PASSES HAVE CURRENTLY BEEN ALLOCATED.
A wait-list has been created from the remaining registrations and any new passes will be issued based on the date of application. To secure a spot on the wait-list, the parking pass application is available online through the PowerSchool Parent Portal.
As student parking passes are at a premium, we have implemented a 'good standing' policy, whereby students must maintain acceptable attendance and adhere to the Bellerose Student Parking Expectations & Agreements. Those who do not will have their parking pass revoked and issued to a student on the wait-list.
STUDENT PARKING is in the WEST LOT ONLY. Student parking is not permitted in the East lot, which is for Staff & Visitor parking only. Parents are also reminded that the East lot (where the Bellerose sign is located) is the staff parking lot and every parking space, other than the ones designated ‘Visitor,’ are allocated to staff members. Please refrain from parking in staff parking stalls.
Parents, please do not drop or pick up students in the school parking lots. We are concerned for the safety of our students and staff.
