The school administration finally scrapped the open parking disaster. This win belongs to every one of the 492 people who refused to let them turn our parking lots into a total demolition derby. Keep your eyes open because we need to make sure they do not try to sneak this …

As of recent, there has been much debate and controversy over Poway High's decision to allow open parking during the 2015/2016 school year. This proposal will allow any student, no matter what their grade level, to park in the two school parking lots which previously had been named the Junior and Senior lot. This proposal holds numerous imminent problems for the student body. There will be a surge of drivers desiring to park in the more preferred 'senior lot' which will thus cause mass traffic. Once the lot has been filled, the drivers will then be forced to drive around the school to park in the junior lot. As you can see this will definitely be a problem for all students in the morning because they will not know if the lot is open or not. Another problem with this proposal is the allowance of new sophomore year drivers to park in complicated, traffic filled parking spots. Now do not get me wrong, I believe all students should be allowed to park at school, no matter what their grade. But when you mix new drivers and a lot of traffic, you are bound to have accidents and collisions, along with arguments amongst students who think they deserve seniority over their younger counterparts. Myself and numerous other students believe this system will not work. This is more than just a problem that will effect the juniors who have been waiting to park in the senior lot when they are seniors, it will negatively effect everyone trying to park. A new proposition for the 2015/2016 school year, which will address the problem of letting sophomores park, is in the making. This open parking proposal is a lose-lose situation, no matter what grade you are in. So please sign the petition to help encourage our administration to make a change and help us fight to create a better system of parking at Poway High.

We hit 250 signatures and the Poway administration still refuses to listen to our concerns about this dangerous parking plan. They think they can ignore us but these numbers prove that the entire student body knows this policy is a disaster waiting to happen.

I was a senior last year and the traffic was already bad enough then. This will cause more traffic and more accident which will just block the roads. I believe that seniors who have work hard for 3 years deserve this privilege of parking in the more preferrd lot.
Enduring 2-3 years of highschool doesn't mean that you deserve to park in then senior lot. You had to go to school. And people claiming that it would cause more accidents, how? Please elaborate.
I'm a sophomore, so this new open parking idea is really in my favor, but I am completely against this. The parking system works great now, as long as the top GPA juniors can fill up the senior lot, and the top GPA sophomores can fill up the Junior lot, everything should be fine.
2016 seniors have waited for 4 years to park in the senior lot and now that is being taken away. Also, students will have to get up even earlier to make sure they are able to get a spot in a lot
It will make parking a hassle. You won't know if a lot is full, and people will be late to class trying to get a spot. With everyone trying to find a spot going between lots, traffic will worsen, and that will cause even more people to arrive late. This system will mess everyone up.

I earned my right to have a senior spot, dont you dare "experiment" this. If i get tickets for just parking in a senior lot as a Junior, sophomores and incoming juniors can do the same thing and have to face what i did.
