 Classroom Rules

                                              These are Motor Vehicle Division Rules and are strictly enforced.
 

Late - A student may be late once, for 5 or 10 minutes, and still be counted present. If late for a second time, the student will be marked absent.

 

Absences - Each absence must be made up by an assignment from the instructor, usually a 300-word essay. The make-up work must be about the topic(s) covered in the missed classroom session.

 
If the student misses more than two sessions, he or she is dropped from the class and must wait until that particular session comes up in the next class. This means that if a student misses the third and fifth classroom sessions and then misses the seventh session, the student is dropped. The student must wait until the following classroom starts and the seventh session comes up to continue with the class. All of the remaining sessions must be completed in order to complete the classroom successfully.

To complete the classroom successfully, it is necessary to get a grade of 75% in the course and have turned in all assignments and books.

 

Behind-the-Wheel Rules

By law, a teenage student can only take a one-hour driving lesson per day. Meaning, a student can drive for one hour and then observe for another hour per day but cannot drive for two hours. The student by law must do their first behind-the-wheel within 60 days of getting their permit or their permit will be revoked.
