This is a requirement to take HPE 1 or 2. Students who do not pick up a IHT monitor will be withdrawn from the course without penalty.  We do not accept written or digital rcorded hours, word of mouth hours, or hours from a student's personal device.

HPE 2 Drivers Education Information

All students registered for HPE 2 and requiring the driver education classroom component will automatically be placed in a section of Driver Ed through our partnership with VADETs.  This course will be conducted in the VADETs Canvas website. If a student elects not to complete driver education with their VPW HPE 2 course, they can do so on their own at a later date through the VADETs program directly. The cost to complete Driver Ed directly with VADETs is $119.

*Note: This is not behind the wheel/road and range training. Please coordinate with your base school before your student gets their license.
