CHS parking lot can be a disaster

By Staff Writer
Jay Carroll

Whether you are trying to get into the parking lot to go to school, you are trying to go home after a long school day, or even if you are attending a sporting event, it takes an extremely long time to get in and out of the high school parking lot.

The parking lot is probably the worst in the morning, it can take ten minutes to get to your parking spot from the traffic light at the intersection of Denton Tap and Parkway. Even with the traffic officers controlling the traffic, it is still  a nightmare trying to maneuver the horrific traffic.

It is pretty bad in the afternoon as students want to get home after a long school day and they become careless which creates wrecks that are completely avoidable.

On certain Friday nights the parking lot becomes even worse when the football team has a home game because not only do you have students who are attending the game you also have parents supporting the team. This doubles the traffic and at times it can become a stand still.

Not to mention that the parking lot is not that big, and it is definitely an advantage to have a smaller car because of some tight turns and small parking places.

If you want to be on time to school you might want to leave fifteen minutes early because you never know what the CHS parking lot is going to throw at you.
