Yes, it is a requirement of the MA RMV for any student who is completing driver's education before the age of 18.
Before the student wants to schedule driving lessons a parent class must physically be completed.
Parent Class is valid for 5 years from date of completion (no exceptions) and would apply to any siblings completing driver's education within that time period.

When the student has a learner’s permit and a parent class has physically been completed.

Yes, as long as the student has a permit and a physically completed parent class you can schedule driving lessons even though they have not started classroom hours.

How do we schedule lessons?

Either phone call or via email

Can we schedule driving lessons if the student is missing classroom hours?

When the student sits in the back seat of the driver’s education vehicle and observes another student driver under the direction of the instructor. This is required by the RMV - no exceptions.

Unfortunately, no. We offer pick up and drop off from multiple locations.

How many lessons can I schedule at once?

Yes, you can! The RMV only allows you to spend up to 2 hours a day in the vehicle regardless of driving/observation combination.

Can I have more than one lesson in a week?

Yes, you can!

Can I schedule a road test with you?
