Driver's Education Program

Fall 2024 Driver's Education Program

The Fall 2024 Driver's Education Program will run from September 6, 2024 to January 29, 2025.

Enrollment

To enroll, all students must be 16 years old and must possess an official New York State Learner's Permit or Junior License prior to registration.

Cost

The cost of the program is $500. The full amount is required with the completed digital application no later than Wednesday, September 4, 2024 by 10:00 AM. Payment must be made through MySchoolBucks. Your MySchoolBucks confirmation code will be required to complete the digital registration packet.

Lecture Classes

Lecture classes will be in person with live teaching, videos and guest speakers. Classes are not credit bearing and will meet once a week at school. If you miss your class time, a makeup must be completed ASAP. Book work will be assigned and must be handed in by assigned date to count. Late assignments will lose points for each day late. After a week late, it will result in a zero for that assignment. Students must maintain an average of 65 of better to pass the course. All work must be completed regardless of grade. Attendance is mandatory so arriving late or leaving early is not permitted and will affect your attendance grade.

Driving Classes

Students will drive and observe once a week for 90 minutes each class. Vehicles will be leaving school grounds promptly and therefore lateness will not be permitted. The use of electronic devices is prohibited throughout the driving session. Tips/videos for teaching and practicing skills will be available at this website.
