Marist High School works in conjunction with the Chicago Public School Driver Education Program at Bogan High School by making classroom instruction available to our student body here at Marist.  Driver Education is taught by an instructor from Chicago Public Schools and the class is not part of Marist’s curriculum.  Classroom instruction is made available at Marist High School as a convenience to our student body throughout the school year.

This fall, Marist will be hosting (3) three sessions of in-person classroom instruction during the Fall Semester of the 2024-25 school year.  The session dates are below:
