Parking:
Convenient parking is available at several lots and garages near the 249 A Street entrance. We recommend parking directly across from the school at Channel Side Parking Lot. The entrances for the Channel Side Parking Lot are located on Binford Street and Necco Street. We recommend the Necco Street entrance which is staffed with an attendant and more reliable. Once inside the parking lot drive to the A Street and Binford St. corner of the lot. This will place you directly across from FPSS's 249 A Street entrance. Discounted parking is no longer available.
