Just a friendly reminder that a state approved 30-hour driver's theory course is a prerequisite for the Behind-The-Wheel Driver's Education program. There is no need to wait for the student to get his/her learner's permit before completing the theory course, as students may complete the course at the age of 15. Registration paperwork should be submitted as soon as possible after the student obtains his/her learner's permit. This ensures that we have plenty of time to schedule lessons and administer the driver's exam as close to the eligibility date as possible. For information on the Behind-The-Wheel program, please visit http://www.pvsd.org/departments/community-education/driver-s-education or contact Jen Leddy at 610-489-8506, ext. 1125. |
