In-School Driver Education

Local area high schools have chosen to partner with AAA to offer high-quality driver education. Modeled after our exclusive Licensed to Learn curriculum, in-school training provides 24 hours of classroom instruction and 6 hours behind the wheel one-on-one with a certified driving instructor.

Upon completion of the high school driver education course, each student receives a certificate that permits night driving privileges and allows them to sign up for their road test (MV-285).

Pricing & Schedule

Price varies by high school, generally ranging from $350 to $450.
