Please read the following letter from our Legend Security Team regarding parking permits:
This week, we are checking the parking lots ensuring every car has a Legend parking permit. We will also start ticketing cars that do not have permits clearly displayed. We have very limited parking at Legend and parking is reserved for students/families who have purchased parking permits and gone through the proper contract system.
To ensure the parking permit process and to honor the students who have gone through the proper parking permit contract system, we will be pulling over non permitted vehicles before school and at lunches to gather information on these students and their vehicles. On the second violation, parents and students will be sent an email and the student will be issued a $25.00 ticket, which will be reflected on their MySchoolBucks account. The school grounds are private property and to park on this property there needs to be a hang tag permit visible in the vehicle at all times.
We have also purchased tire boots to immobilize vehicles that are in violation of our parking rules and regulations. These will be used if the initial warning and second violation have not deterred illegal parking. A bright orange flier will be placed on the windshield and the driver side window stating the vehicle has been immobilized. Only Legend security can remove the boot and the student will be issued a $50 ticket that will be placed on their MySchoolBucks account.
*Parking Permits will be sold in July for the 2023-2024 school year.
Thank you for your cooperation with this matter.

Parking Permit Process for the 2022-2023 school year:
LHS has 672 spaces designated for students. We issue approximately 750 permits to try and accommodate as many students as possible. We often hear that there are many open spaces throughout the day. Although this is sometimes true because of off periods and absences, we have instances (during periods 2, 3, and 4 in particular), when there are no spaces available and students park illegally on end caps. This causes a safety concern for our student drivers and blocks access to our fire lanes. Thus, we must be intentional about the number of permits we issue, dictating the following numbers:
Parking Permit Availability (click on the link for map of each lot):
● White Lot (southeast of school, upper part of lot near football field) - 47 spaces, 60 permits
● Orange Lot (north side of school, east side of entrance road) - 214 spaces, 245 permits
○ Please note: Due to band practice, students parking in the Orange Lot must move their car each day after school by 3:20pm, through November 18th. They can move to the Blue Lot after their lunch or after school if they are staying for activities.
● Blue Lot (north side of school, west side of entrance road) - 363 spaces, 400 permits
● Gold (Tallman Park) Lot (3 rows closest to the school) - 48 spaces, 50 permits
Due to our current enrollment for the 2022-2023 school year, we will only allow Seniors and Juniors the opportunity to purchase a permit. There will be NO parking permits issued to Sophomores. We will monitor the numbers during the Fall (2022) semester to determine if we can open parking to Sophomores for the Spring (2023) semester. Also, students CANNOT purchase a permit unless they have obtained their driver’s license and DO NOT have outstanding fees. Once they have their license, they can check MySchoolBucks.com to see if permits are available.
Parking Permit Purchase Process:
● All student parking contracts and permits will be completed and purchased through MySchoolBucks.com
● In order to successfully complete the contract, the student/parent must know the student’s driver’s license number, license plate number, and make/model/year/color of vehicle the student will be driving to LHS. If any of the information is not known at this point (except driver’s license number), please enter “TBD” and update with Security once known.
● If a student purchases a permit without a license, they will not be able to pick up the permit and the fee will be refunded. Purchasing a permit when you do not have a valid driver’s license will NOT reserve you a spot.
● After completing the contract, you will be able to go to the payment page. The cost of a permit is $50. Once purchased, the permit is reserved for that student.
● If you have difficulty with MySchoolBucks, please call 303-387-4535.
● If all of the permits are purchased, a waitlist will be created under the Gold Lot.
Distribution of Parking Permits:
● Students must provide a copy of their Driver’s License, copy of proof of insurance, and the payment receipt when picking up their permit.
● Students cannot have ANY fines or fees, including the current school year, to pick up their permit. Payment plans (if needed) may be arranged for fines/fees through our bookkeeper, Lori Skoglund, in the Finance Office. A permit can be picked up once this has been done.
