Parental Class

The two-hour parent class is required by the State for completion of the driver's ed curriculum. State-mandated subjects along with important licensing information is discussed.

The parent class must be done before the driver education certificate can be ordered, which precedes the road test by 3 weeks.

If you took the parent class within the past 5 years, you do not need to take it again, provided that we receive a copy of the certificate if you attended the class elsewhere. Parent class is not required if student is over the age of 18. We'll keep your attendance on file, therefore no need to produce a parent class certificate from us for younger siblings.

To register, call 508-459-1331 anytime and leave us a message with both your name and the student's name. (Open to parents of our students only)
