$155/School day classes
$185 Summer & Evening classes
PREREQUISITE:
A Learners Permit must be obtained from the Driver License Division (110 East 700 South - phone: 752-0332) by taking and passing the State Written Test BEFORE attending the first day of class.
OPTION 1 - School Day:
Enroll in the course to be taken during the school day.
The cost is $155.00.
This option fulfills the 27 hours of face-to-face instruction time required by the state.
Students may not miss more than 5 days to be able to pass this class.
OPTION 2 - Night Class:
You can reserve your spot in a session of the night classes by signing up and paying the fee of $185.00 in the finance office at Sky View.
Registration for the next session becomes available AFTER the current class begins. For example, June class registration opens after the March class begins.
There are NO waiting lists and priority for seats in the class will be based on: first to sign-up and pay, birth date, permits, and eligibility date.
There are seven classes with four-hour class periods. The classes MUST be taken in order and all classes completed. If you are unable to attend all seven classes during a session, you MUST complete the class you miss in another session. For example, if you miss class #3 in the November session, you must make-up class #3 in another session, like January or March. Students may not miss class #1 of the session they are signing up for.
This option fulfills the 27 hours of face-to-face instruction time required by the state.

FAQ
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.
The night class (option 2) 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?
Yes, if taking the class during the school day.
If taking the night class or online class 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.
You must take and pass Driver Education. Attendance of 27 hours must be completed before you are eligible to obtain a license. (three options available, see above)
