The use of carpools and public transportation is strongly recommended. To find a carpool, visit the NE Denver Carpool connection group on Facebook or Way to Go Schoolpool. RTD bus transportation is free for DPS students. Review the RTD website for additional information and bus routes to/from Northfield High School. IDs are required to ride RTD free of charge.
Bicycles and skateboards must be locked on the racks located on the east side near the main entrance of Buildings 2 and 5. Bikes are not to be locked around trees or fences and may be cut off and removed if done so. The school is not responsible for theft or damage to bicycles or skateboards. Students may travel to school on skateboards but are not permitted to ride skateboards on school property.

Families who drive their student(s) to school are encouraged to allow extra time and to consider dropping off/picking up on Dallas St. east of the athletic fields (see the map below). Please pay close attention to speed limits, street signs and pedestrians around campus.
This year, the north parking lot closest to Buildings 1 and 3 is reserved for seniors with a valid Paul Sandoval Campus parking permit. The senior parking permit lottery issued last spring is no longer valid. The lot closest to Northfield Athletic Complex is now open to all students and staff, as well as the public. Parking spots in both lots, unless otherwise marked, are available on a first come, first serve basis.
Seniors will receive a white permit; others are given a black permit. Parking permits are available during the Final 30 (3:25-3:55 p.m.) the first week of school in the Great Hall. Students may not park in any reserved spots in these lots or in the faculty/staff lot on the southeast side of campus. Members of Northfield’s Engagement Team, Campus Safety Officers and DSST will monitor the parking lots in the morning and for the first 15 minutes following lunch.
All students are asked to register their car with Northfield High School regardless of if they park on campus or on surrounding neighborhood streets. Please complete car registration immediately. Students must obey all street signs, as well as refrain from blocking alleys, driveways or fire hydrants; these parking violations are strongly enforced by the Denver Police Department. Students are not allowed to park in the Shops at Beeler parking lot. Parking violations on and off campus may result in towing of a vehicle.
