Federal Way Public Schools recently sent a letter to Federal Way High School families and neighbors, notifying them of changes at the school that begin on Monday.

On Monday, April 20, most traffic to and from Federal Way High School will be routed onto 304th Street.

Drivers will not be able to drive onto campus from 308th Street, except to park in the Memorial Field lot.

These changes directly impact student and staff parking and student drop-off locations.

Starting on Monday, Lot D (between the school and Memorial Field) and the small gravel lot on the south side of 308th Street are no longer available for student, staff or visitor parking.

These parking areas are needed for staging construction equipment during the construction of the south wing of the new high school.

Students will have two options for parking on campus: The new lot on 304th Street (the site of the old swimming pool) or the gravel parking lot south of Memorial Stadium.

Staff can park in the lot north of the portables and also in the lot on 304th Street.

To drop off students in the morning and pick them up in the afternoon, parents and guardians will now enter campus from 304th Street.
