Driver's Education

  • Driver's Education

    • The North Carolina Division of Motor Vehicles (DMV) requires 30 hours of classroom instruction and six hours of behind-the-wheel training.  All Durham County students who are at least 14 ½ years old and under age 18 and enrolled in a public, private, charter or home school are eligible to take driver education in Durham Public Schools.

     

    • Students wishing to take driver education must be eligible to receive a driver eligibility certificate.  Students who have failed two or more courses the previous semester are not eligible to take driver education.

     

    • Once students complete Driver's Education, they can schedule an appointment with Mrs. Machak to receive a Driver's Eligibility certificate. Certificates are only valid for 30 days, so please ensure your appointment is scheduled prior to requesting a certificate.
