Royals Roadside

New Question: Will there be a new parking lot?

Answer: Yes! As part of the campus-wide improvement/transformation, Athletic Field #2 (behind Royals Fieldhouse) will be converted into a large parking lot with 230 plus spaces.

  • The construction will take place at the back of the school, outside of our highly trafficked areas.
  • This new lot is designed to offset the loss of parking spaces during the building project and to permanently improve parking and traffic flow for the expanded student body.
  • The current construction timeline is scheduled to begin this month and to last for about two weeks.
  • More information will be provided as construction plans are finalized.
Visit the Royals Roadside page for the latest information on traffic and construction. The latest traffic & construction email is HERE.
