Info

ONLINE REGISTRATION NOW OPEN! Offered throughout the school year and summer by Brainerd Public Schools Community Education and taught by college trained Department of Education certified instructors. Let our Brainerd teachers help you meet the State Driver Education requirements!

Special Note: we have updated our classroom curriculum textbooks are out computer lab is now part of your 30 hour classroom course. Sessions run Monday through Friday summer session and M T & Th after school during the school year; note sessions begin on Tues. The classroom portion of the program will meet for three hours each day for the first 10 days. On the last day, a State Examiner from the Minnesota Department of Public Safety will administer the written test required for a drivers permit. Students must be 15 years of age (age exceptions must be discussed when registering), and provide the examiner with the following: a certified copy of their birth certificate (obtained from the Brainerd court house), and a secondary form of identification, such as a social security card, a certified copy of a school transcript, or a valid passport. Other secondary forms will be explained in class.

The next five sessions will be on the simulator. All simulator classes are 1-1/2 hours except the last class which is two hours long. *Missed simulation classes result in the need for extra driving time to meet state requirements. If one class is missed, the student must pay for 1/2 hour of extra on street driving at the cost of $22 in order to meet the requirements. Any remaining balance or additional charges incurred after the first date of class must be paid in cash; no checks will be accepted.

Students will be allowed to register for behind the wheel dates at the end of simulation or drive at a later date.

To ensure that this driver s education program is safe and appropriate, please indicate when registering whether the student has any special needs or requires any accommodations to be successful in this program.

Meets: Monday Friday (Note classes start on Tuesdays)
NOTE: A 90 minute parent course is offered free of charge for the Primary Diving Supervisor whose student s tuitions are paid in full. See New Laws Sheet for more information.
After completing 30 hours of classroom, the student will spend eight hours in the simulator. Behind the wheel dates are made by appointment during the school year (an instructor will call). Most people will be done driving 3-6 weeks after simulation unless they choose to wait. Students will complete the entire course within one year of their first classroom session. A $60 fee will be assessed to those waiting longer than a year. Anyone waiting 18 months or longer will pay $90 and $5 per month thereafter.

After eight hours of simulation, four hours of behind the wheel are required. However, whenever possible, students will be scheduled to drive with a driving partner and will spend half of their eight in-car hours observing and the other half driving. If a student withdraws from the program after beginning classroom they will forfeit $115 of their tuition. If a student withdraws from the program after beginning simulation, $200 will be forfeited. It is possible not to forfeit any tuition if moving to a later classroom or simulator offering that is not full.

Students who don t show up for scheduled behind the wheel driving appointments will be charged $36. Cancellations must be made at least 24 hours before the driving is scheduled.

This agreement/contract constitutes an agreement/contract between the program and the student/parent and no verbal statements or promises will be recognized.
