Zoom Live Classroom Option The State of Minnesota requires that driver’s education distance learning be conducted in a face-to-face platform, which requires that students have a video camera and audio capabilities on their devices. Safeway has chosen a secure Zoom platform to conduct the class. Safeway will be emailing the classroom handouts and MN Driver’s Manual in pdf format for printing. Students will be required to be in front of the camera and interactive for the full three hour class. If you are unable to print the handouts/Driver Education manual- the materials can be picked up from the Central Services Building at 1875 Greeley St at the Community Education Window. Parents/guardians will be required to complete Safeway's Account Verification. Safeway will be sending out an email before class begins that gives detailed information about how to login to the student's Safeway account to verify and complete contact information and to review and acknowledge our Service Agreement.
