A friends car got broken into at school today along with like 4 others. I park across from him, luckily they didnt touch mine. According to the cop the other high school by us had about 15 cars broken into. They started school Tuesday, we started yesterday.

I got my money back and will be parking some where else for the remainder of the year.

is it college or high school parking you're in ? I ask that because you asked for your money back. clearly whomever is running the parking lot has no security right?

High school

We do have some security. There was a camera at the corner of the building where we park. And they have a security guard. Whats funny is the cops are there in the morning now to direct traffic and this happens. When we were in the office I could see our cars on the PC monitor.

Ah west sider. The whole metro area is bad for auto theft.

Also do you drive a 93 Saturn sl2? I have a 94 sc2, and I was wondering if you had the 1.9 DOHC and what gas milage you get with it.

I was thinking the same thing.

I know some schools down there have issues with over crowding so that maybe a way to limit the over crowding.

well the way my school did it was they start with seniors, you did pay 5 bucks for your parking pass. start selling them with seniors on down. normally if you showed up early a couple sophmores could get passes but mostly just seniors and juniors.

Yep I got the 1.9 DOHC engine. I get pretty good gas mileage. Went to Canada, drove around a little, and back on a 1/4 tank of gas and still made it Telegraph and Cherry Hill before I put gas in...//content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/biggrin.gif.d71a5d36fcbab170f2364c9f2e3946cb.gif

Thats the way it works at my school too. The Seniors get the 1st pick, then juniors, and Sophomores if there are spaces available. I parked half of my sophomore year and all of last year without a parking permit, but this year the administration started threatening to tow cars that are parking in the parking lot without a permit so I just bought one for $15.

I think we have like 1600-1700 kids. The freshman class this year is huge and they all look like they're in 5th grade.

But I parked across the street from the school today. Had to cross a major road during morning rush hour. I had enough of it just crossing once so I got my parking permit back.

And good news....They caught the guy. According to my assistant principal the guy hit our school and 3 others around us.

wow my high school parking pass was close to $150 per year and you could lose it due to grades or suspensions and not get any money back. Also parking tickets for being in the wrong spot or parking without a permit were around $10.
