Cache County Schools’ Driver Education 2010-2011
ATTN: All students who are 15 years old
As a result of the New Learner Permit Law (see attached flyer) you can now obtain a permit to drive when you reach the age of fifteen. The Driver Education Department for Cache County School District will offer classes for any student who is or will be 15 years old during the 2009-2010 school year. This includes student from any school: Sky View, North Cache, South Cache, Mountain Crest, Fast Forward, Cache High, Tech High School, etc.
The class times are posted below. Seven sessions will have four-hour class periods, one will be two hours. If you are unable to attend all eight classes during a session, you could finish the classes during another session. It is recommended, but not required, that the classes be taken in order: class #1, class #2, class #3, etc. However, all students MUST begin by taking class #1.
Before attending the first class, you CAN (not mandatory) obtain the Learner Permit from the Driver License Division (110 East 700 South – phone: 752-
0332) by taking and passing the State Written Test. It is
NOT required to have the permit upon entering the class. However, you are required, by Utah Law, to have the permit at least SIX MONTHS prior to obtaining a license (even if you are already 16). A significant portion of class time will be utilized in giving you the information you need to pass the State Test. Therefore, when considering which class to take, it would be best to take
a class at least six months prior to reaching age sixteen. Again, if you are unable to attend all eight classes
offered during a particular session, you may complete the classes during another session. You will need to complete all eight classes, complete all instructional
drives, and have a Learner Permit for six months prior to
obtaining a Driver License at age sixteen.
Why should I take Driver Education so soon?
To have the knowledge to practice effectively with your parents (i.e., right of way laws, maneuvers, proper driving techniques).
To develop good habits rather than unsafe practices that may have to be corrected in order to pass the Driving Test.
By taking the class during the summer or at night, it will save an elective choice in your high school schedule. This class would be great for those who participate in extra-curricular activities, or those who intend to take AP or Concurrent Enrollment classes.
Will the grade I receive for Driver Education affect my Grade Point Average?
The choice is yours. Because this class will be offered during the summer and after school, you have the option of taking the class on a Pass/Fail basis or for a
grade. If you choose the Pass/Fail option, you will NOT receive high school credit toward high school graduation. You will have completed what the State of Utah requires of you to obtain a Driver License only. If you choose to take the class for a grade, it will become part of your high school transcript and will therefore be part of your GPA. You will have your final grade before you have to make this decision; however, once the decision is made, it is final.
What will I have to complete before I can get my license?
You must obtain the Learner Permit from the Driver License Division. This is accomplished by passing the State Written Test (refer to flyer).
You must take and pass Driver Education. Attendance of 30 hours must be completed before you are eligible to obtain a license.
Complete all instructional drives:
Highway drive
Maneuver drive
Range drive
Driving Test
We can usually schedule the instructional drives around your schedule, if you communicate with us.
Cost of the Course:
The fee for the Driver Education course is $100.00
payable during class #1 of any session. This fee covers the entire cost of the course (i.e., all eight classroom sessions, instructional drives, and the handbook). Checks should be made out to Cache County School District.
