Mohonasen will be offering a Spring 2026 Driver Education Program. The sixteen-week program will run from February 2, 2026 to June 5, 2026. Registrants must have a driver’s permit before February 2, 2026.
You can register here. Limited spots are available. The program is offered to students outside the district.
Some benefits of completing a Driver Education program include:
- Most insurance companies offer a discount for completion of an accredited Driver and Traffic Safety Education (DTSE) program
- Students who successfully complete an accredited DTSE program are eligible for unrestricted driving privileges (Senior License) at age 17 rather than 18
- Students who successfully complete an accredited DTSE program are NOT required to complete the five (5) hour pre-licensing course prior to their DMV road test
Driving groups meet once per week on a fixed schedule. Driving days/times are Monday: 3-4:30 p.m., Tuesday/Wednesday, 3-4:30 p.m. or 4:30- 6 p.m., with class time being Monday at 4:30-6 p.m. Attendance is mandatory.
