General Cost & Information

Parking Permits


The Deans’ Office will be selling parking permits at a cost of $150 to all seniors and only juniors who are currently enrolled in a GAVC class in which busing is not available.  Students will not be sold a parking permit if they still owe current and/or previous school fees and/or need to meet any previous school obligations (including GAVC students).


Permits will be sold to these students on the following dates and times:

  • Tuesday, July 26th, during Junior and Senior student registration at South Campus
  • August 10th & 11th from 12:30 pm. - 3:00 pm. at Central Campus

Students planning to purchase a parking permit must keep the following in mind.


  • Prior to purchasing a parking permit, students must have paid, in full, all outstanding school fees and/or obligations including the 2022-2023 school year fees by the date of permit purchase.  Fees and obligations can be paid online here through the MCHS Web Store.
  • All students are required to have the following documents when purchasing a parking permit.
  1. A Student Parking Registration Form, which can be downloaded from the MCHS website under the Deans’ Office tab.
  2. The vehicle registration for the vehicle that will be parked on campus.
  3. Proof of valid insurance on the vehicle that the student is registering.
  4. A valid Illinois Driver’s license.

Procedure for the “Junior Lottery”


Junior students may begin turning in completed parking permit applications on July 26th, at the student registration day, or on August 10th or 11th from 12:30 p.m. – 3:00 p.m. at Central Campus. Prior to purchasing a parking permit, students must have paid, in full, all outstanding school fees and/or obligations including the 2022-2023 school year fees by the date of permit purchase.  All applications collected during this time will be entered into a junior lottery to determine placement on the junior waiting list.  All applications that are turned in after August 11th will be placed on the junior waiting list in the order that they were received.  


Junior lottery selection will begin once school starts (typically during the first/second week of school).  Selected juniors will be notified, through the Deans’ Office.  Once notified, selected juniors will have three days to purchase their permit.  If the permit is not purchased within three days, the application will be placed at the bottom of the junior lottery.



Sophomore Parking Permits


Sophomore parking permits will be sold once school begins.  The Deans’ Office will provide more information once school starts.


We look forward to working with you during the upcoming school year.
