Board approves contract with Top Driver for behind‑the‑wheel driver‑education services
Summary
District 211 opened a public hearing and then authorized the superintendent to enter a multi‑year contract with Top Driver for behind‑the‑wheel instruction for 2026–27 and 2027–28; no public speakers were present and motions passed by roll call/voice vote.
The Township High School District 211 Board of Education opened a public hearing on March 12 on a proposal to contract with Top Driver, a commercial driver‑training school, to provide behind‑the‑wheel instruction for district driver‑education students and then authorized the superintendent or designee to execute the contract for the 2026–27 and 2027–28 school years.
The board completed the three required motions for the public hearing: opening the hearing under Section 27‑24.2 of the Illinois School Code, authorizing the superintendent to enter a contract in a form approved by the superintendent and the board’s attorney with Top Driver, and then closing the hearing. Administration reported no members of the public had signed up to speak on the item.
The motion authorizing the contract passed by roll call with the following recorded yes votes: Miss Cavill, Mr. Dumbrossski, Mrs. Lopez, Miss Russell, Mr. Van Djk and Mr. Rosenlum. The board instructed administration to proceed with contract execution in a form approved by legal counsel.
What’s next: Administration will finalize contract language with the superintendent and the board’s attorney and proceed with implementation of behind‑the‑wheel services for district driver‑education students as scheduled.
