Off Campus Privileges
Students with junior or senior status may apply for off-campus privileges during their lunch period only. Interested students must have a parent or guardian come to the front security desk in person and fill out an application. Applications are reviewed by the student's dean, with attendance, behavior, and grades being taken into account. Students will be notified of a decision after a six week waiting period.
