    • 2025-2026 Student Parking Pass Application
      Parking on the CATA Campus is considered a privilege for students. Each student who drives to school must purchase his/her own parking tag, and may not share a tag with another student. CATA and UCPS will assume no responsibility for damage to private vehicles driven and parked on campus. Student drivers must have appropriate auto insurance. All student drivers must be properly licensed.

      Parking passes will be made available from 8/5-8/7 for SENIORS ONLY. Starting on 8/11, Juniors will be eligible to purchase parking passes. Finally, on 8/15, sophomores will be allowed to purchase parking passes.  All Passes are $50.00 each (non-refundable).  Information about the senior painting party will be sent out separately to seniors only. The process for purchasing parking passes will be done through a Google form for the 25-26 school year. Students who try and purchase passes during another grade level's time slot will not be processed. Students must be logged into their school Google account to access the form.
