Fall Registration for Drivers' Education has concluded. Please see Registration Information for more information on when to register for our Winter 2025 program.
Prior to the 1998 school year, Broward County School's Driver's Education program included both classroom and behind-the-wheel instruction. In 1998, due to budget constraints, a phasing out of the behind-the-wheel component of the program began. Effectively, the Driver's Education programs “physical cars” were replaced with “virtual cars” in the form of computer-based driving simulators. By the year 2000, the Drivers' Education program had totally transitioned to a classroom/simulation-based program. With the support of the Dori Slosberg Driver Education Safety Act, Broward County Public Schools restructured its Drivers' Education program. The restructured program was piloted at Plantation High School during the summer of 2003. BCPS's Driver's Education program has a fleet of over 90 vehicles and serves over 2400 students annually Goals
