Fifty-three juniors were waiting for parking passes passes when Dr. Shiree Yeggins arrived at 6 a.m. Some had arrived around midnight.
Dr. Yeggins distributed line numbers to those waiting and sent them home until secretary Charlotte Holmes started selling passes at 8:30 a.m.
Holmes said she sold 58 passes in an hour. One student came in at 9 a.m. who hadn’t been here the night before but was still able to get an available pass, Holmes added.
