    • As required by Virginia Code §22.1-205, the 90-minute Partners for Safe Teen Driving presentations are being offered each month this fall/winter. The program shall emphasize (i) parental responsibilities regarding juvenile driver behavior, (ii) juvenile driving restrictions pursuant to this Code, (iii) the dangers of driving while intoxicated and underage consumption of alcohol, and (iv) the dangers of distracted driving. Parent/guardian and teen attendance is a requirement before a student receives a Driver Education Certificate of Completion card (DEC-1 card). This card is needed to take the Behind the Wheel course and receive a VA Driver's license (under 18). Any students who are taking Driver Education during the 24-25 school year should plan on attending one of the sessions. You only need to attend one session, no pre-registration is needed. You can choose the session that is most convenient for you and your child. Attendance will be taken during the meeting. Please arrive 15 minutes before the start of the session. Once the session has started you will not be allowed in and will have to attend a future session.

      Parents/Guardians: please complete this OPT-OUT FORM ONLY if you will NOT be attending the 90-minute parent/student driver education component with your teen, as required by Virginia Code §22.1-205. Although a parent/guardian may opt-out of attending the presentation, it is MANDATORY for students to complete the 90-Minute Parent/Student component as part of the state-approved classroom driver education curriculum to be eligible for a Classroom Driver Education Certificate of Completion (DEC-1). Completed Parent Opt Out Forms should be turned in to your child's Driver Education teacher
