SIDNEY PUBLIC SCHOOLS-Driver Education Schedule 2024-25
Updates on the 2023-24 school year traffic education program. With only 76 8th graders this school year, we DO NOT intend on running a spring class for 8th grade students. If that changes, eligible students will be contacted directly by Mr. Barnhart.
The deadline for signing up for the first fall session of Traffic Education for 2024-25 will be AUGUST 29. The deadline for the final session will be December 19.
INITIAL SIGN-UP DURING FALL REGISTRATION AT SIDNEY HIGH SCHOOL
SPS traffic education serves all students who meet the requirements in our school district regardless if they are from a private school, public school, or home school. Placement into a session is based on school activities (see link below), grade level, and age.
