their permit. Any time after that 1st day of class, the student can
then go to the DMV to get their permit.

How do I obtain my permit?
During the first two days of the class, you will go over the rules of
the road book and take a practice permit test, then will be given a
Permit Application which you will need to take to the Department of
Motor Vehicles (DMV), along with $20 and the identification required to
take the actual permit exam.

When/How do I schedule
driving time?
After obtaining a permit, you must bring it in to the office so that
the office may record some information. Next the office will assign the
student to an instructor. The instructor will then call the student to
schedule driving time.
Driving
time is scheduled on a priority basis according to birthdays. Older
students are scheduled first. We make every effort to finish the
driving phase with the student before the student is eligible to get
their license.
