We will continue to offer three terms of Driver’s Education. One in Fall, one in
winter and one in late spring through early summer.
We will continue to offer Driver’s Education each term as a zero hour class with
driving done during school day (During P.E.). This will be limited to approximately
25 students each semester.

SO IT IS IMPORTANT THAT THE TERM YOUR SON/DAUGHTER SIGNS UP FOR, THEY
ARE ALSO SIGNED UP FOR P.E. EVEN IF THEY WANTED TO EXEMPT!
Preference when we ARE able to offer it is based SOLELY on birth date. (This is
all done through the office – Berniece – and students must sign up again each
semester)
Students will need a copy of their drivers permit prior to first day of class turned in
to high school office.
This arrangement may vary depending upon the instructor.
