Registration for Spring Driver Education Approaches
Registration for the spring driver education program at Huntington High School will be held for seniors on Monday, January 28 between 2:30-3:30 p.m.
Registration for all other students (juniors, sophomores and non-residents) will be held on Tuesday, January 29, also between 2:30-3:30 p.m.
Huntington juniors will register first, followed by sophomores and then all others.
Both registration sessions will be held in room 122 – the office of the director of physical education and athletics.
The program is open to any student who will be at least 16 years old by Feb. 2 and who holds a valid learner’s permit, which must be presented the first day of class.
There are 70 openings, which will be filled on a first-come, first-served basis. The registration fee is $500 for residents ($525 for non-residents). Checks should be made payable to: Huntington High School Driver Education Program.
An application for the program can be downloaded by logging onto the Huntington School District’s website at www.hufsd.edu and clicking on the Resources link, then on Driver Education and then on Forms & Files.
The course will run from February 4 through May 11. Lecture classes will be conducted every Monday and Tuesday. Students must attend both days. Road classes will be conducted Monday through Saturday. Students must attend one road class per week, which are two-hour sessions.
Individual schedules will be assigned on a first-come-first-served basis on the day of registration.
Students are allowed to miss a maximum of three classes. However, these classes must be made up immediately. Once a student misses a fourth class, they will be dropped from the program and will be ineligible for a “blue card” (MV-285). Classes cannot be made up once a new semester has started.
Students are responsible for their own transportation to and from the program each day. No refunds will be provided once classes have begun.
To be eligible for a “blue card” a student must satisfactorily complete 24 hours of lecture and 24 hours in the car during the spring program.
