HUTCHINSON, Kan. — USD 308 officials are advising students and some staff that parking near Hutchinson High School will be a major challenge next week. The NJCAA Tournament begins Monday and runs all week.

For students and some staff, that impacts the Sports Arena’s east parking lot.

Students are encouraged to arrive early and stay parked in the lot as much as possible. Students who must arrive late, or have off-campus activities, can get into the lot until 3:15 p.m. daily with a parking pass or Hutch High ID card.

Those without parking passes will be charged $5 after 3:15 p.m.

Drivers are reminded to be cautious and patient with NJCAA traffic.
