Criteria to apply for either class – If you don’t meet all criteria, do not apply.

Grades: Must not be failing any classes at the time of class selection. AND must have passed all classes the previous semester.
Attendance: Student must be on track for less than 8 absences in any class. If too early to determine this, the principal will make this decision based on current attendance, the attendance of the previous semester, and discussion with the student and/or parent. The student must not have more than one truancy in any class.
Fees: All past due fees/fines must be paid in full. (Including if taking a drivers ed class online or privately). This includes amounts due in the office, library, cafeteria, band, or other club/activity.
Non FHS Students: Students who do not attend a Fruitland district school will only be admitted if all Fruitland students have been accepted and there are remaining open spots in the class.
Homeschool* students: Those who reside within the Fruitland district will be treated as a Fruitland student. Documentation of homeschool status and proof of residency may be required.
Forfeiture: Students who fail to purchase their permit and pay their class fee by the due date or who do not attend the first class will be immediately withdrawn from the class and the next person(s) in line will be contacted.
IDLA Students:
- If you are taking Driver’s Ed through FHS, but taking the classroom portion through IDLA, the sequence of events is as follows: 1) AFTER receiving your acceptance letter, go to DMV to purchase student’s permit, 2) fill out the IDLA registration form, with the permit number written on the top, 3) bring the completed IDLA registration form (with permit number) and payment to the HS office.
- If you are NOT taking Driver’s Ed through FHS, students will not be allowed to enroll in the online driver’s education class without written verification from a driving instructor. The permit must go to the driving instructor, not FSD. Students may not use the FHS driving instructor but must locate their own certified instructor and provide written documentation from that instructor prior to being enrolled in the IDLA class.

*Idaho regulations state “Students enrolled in a home-education program must have been enrolled in the program for at least one school year prior to the verification of attendance request unless documentation can be provided for meeting the attendance requirement for the school year immediately prior to the year in which you are enrolled in the home education program. When your parents sign the liability statement, they must also sign a statement that you are in compliance with the school attendance provisions of Idaho Code.”
