15 years and 9 months on the first day of instruction.
No. However, you must have your permit in hand for all behind-the-wheel driving lessons and observations. Click here to learn more about getting your permit.
We have three convenient ways to register:
If there is a waitlist, we encourage you to add your student’s name to the waitlist and also register and pay for another upcoming class. We will contact you if a space opens and transfer your student to the preferred class.
In some cases, we will ask the first couple of students on the waitlist to be on stand by, if some one does not show up for the first class.
In order to be eligible to stand by, your student must be registered and paid for a later class, so that we can transfer the payment to the preferred class if a seat becomes available. If you need financial assistance and/or a payment plan, those arrangements need to be made ahead of time also. If your student doesn’t get in by standing by, you can withdraw from the later class with a full refund less a $10 processing fee.
We have limited scholarship available. Click here to fill out an application.
We will work with your family to set up a payment plan that meets your needs for the balance.
Once you have your learner’s permit, have completed at least Module 1 of the classroom portion, and a parent/guardian has completed the parent class you can begin scheduling appointments.
Once you get your permit, email Ann or Jill a picture of the permit or stop by our offices with your permit so we can set up your account.
You will log in to Schedule2Drive with your permit number and date of birth.
Plan your driving lessons a week or two apart so you have time to practice for at least 4 hours at home between lessons.
All lessons start and end at CCHS. We will be waiting at the curb by the Dining Commons. Please be prompt and look for our cars – they are white with maroon lettering on the side.
You need to make up the actual class missed (Module 1-15), as each class covers a distinct curriculum so check the schedule to find out when that module is offered again.
Due to the RMV’s limit on the number of students allowed in class at a time, please speak with Ann to reserve your spot for any modules you need to make up. Failure to show up to the make up module incurs a $70 fee, similar to missing a driving lesson.
Our new policy effective May 1, 2024:
Cancellations must be made in www.Schedule2Drive.com 24 hours in advance to avoid being charged for lessons. Failure to cancel on time results in a fee of $60 for a weekday lesson or $70 for a weekend/holiday lesson.
When you cancel a lesson less than 24 hours before it was scheduled to start through Schedule2Drive, an alert is sent to all students about a last-minute opening. No matter how late it is, we highly recommend you try this – you might get lucky and have someone take your open spot! If another student books the lesson after you cancel, the fees will be waived.
You have two years from the date you first attend class according to the RMV’s policy. We encourage you to complete the coursework and driving requirements in one year.
Students who do not finish by their 2-year RMV deadline forfeit any unused lessons.
You must have your permit for six months without any infractions, meet all the requirements for driver education, have a Driver Education Certificate processed by the RMV, and pass a road test.
Once we have sent your certificate to the RMV, you should be able to log in to their system 7-10 days later to schedule your test.
Yes!
If you want us to sponsor (take you) to your test with our instructor and car, we can do so for a fee of $125*.
We sponsor road tests at Leominster, Watertown, and Wilmington locations. Test sponsorships start and end at CCHS, just like lessons, and take approximately two hours. Contact Ann for possible time slots before making an appointment with the RMV.
