Wait, I will not get my Class D license until October… It’s OK… You can show the carbon copy from your driver’s road test You can show the receipt that proves you have a Class D from DMV But… If you show up on your birthday to park, it will not be a happy birthday for you… Why??

Wilson Tech Driving In order to park at Wilson Tech, you must, first, have a valid Commack Parking sticker Have Wilson Tech form signed by Mrs. Nelson Limited spots available when AM Tech students return to CHS, especially in spring…

Driving Safe… Tips Look next to you before you open your doors Pull in correctly to a spot, practice makes perfect In snow, clear off your windshield or defrost your windshield Do not cut off cars while pulling in to the lot Check your surroundings for joggers, cyclists and your peers walking in the lot Watch for cars backing in to spots No loud music

If an accident occurs… It happens and it’s OK, but… You MUST alert me of this immediately in the upper lot (We can solve so many problems early on if I know immediately) If I am not around, report it to the dean’s office as soon as you walk in to school DO NOT just walk away and pretend nothing happened
