We continue to look for ways to improve upon our offerings and educational opportunities at West Side High School. We would like your feedback on offering Driver's Education during the school day schedule. We know that insurance for student drivers can be very costly, and many insurance companies still offer a discount for students who have successfully completed Driver's Education. Please complete this short survey if you have a young student driver. Thank you for your time in helping with this decision!
