Fee change, new trustees and a sidewalk

Driver's ed rate to go from $190 to $265 per student after July 1; sidewalk to be built at Hayden Meadows

It's been at least a dozen years since the Coeur d'Alene School District increased its driver's education fee. That cost will go from $190 to $265 per student for classes that start after July 1, following Monday's unanimous approving vote by school board trustees at the recommendation of Assistant Superintendent of Secondary Education Trent Derrick. “Of the three larger districts in the county, we’re the only one that still maintains a school-based driver’s ed program, and it has been a successful program," Derrick said. "We do have a situation where we’re running it at a deficit right now."
