Smart Start - Driver Safety Class & Parking Permits

Smart Start is a safe-driving presentation provided by the Irvine Police Department, in collaboration with the Irvine Unified School District, to ensure the safety of our students as they begin their driving careers. 

Crean Lutheran High School requires Smart Start attendance and participation for students interested in obtaining a school parking permit. Smart Start only needs to be attended once. For this reason, there are various times and locations for the presentation. Students (grades 9-12) may participate in the presentation BEFORE or AFTER receiving their driver’s license. 

Classes of 2027 and 2028, please check your emails for more information regarding parking permits.
