HOW YOU SIGN UP FOR DRIVER EDUCATION COURSE WITH US
All drives are with our instructors in our driver education vehicles. The classroom component is done online with a state approved program. You must be 14 1/2 years old before the class start date and be able to obtain your driving permit by the start date. Register early as the classes fill quickly.
Idaho also requires you to register with a driving school 1st before getting your permit. Driver’s licensing will ask you what driving school you are registered with, tell them A&A Driving School.
DO NOT START ANY PART OF DRIVE EDUCATION COURSES WITHOUT A PERMIT BEING PURCHASED, IT’S THE LAW!
Driver education takes longer than you think, so please plan accordingly. Students have 7 weeks to finish the 30 hour online course. There is an additional fee to extend the online class. After finishing the online class the student will be added to the waitlist for in-car lessons. Wait times vary, but expect it to be several weeks.
If you want to drive in the summer than you need to start your online class in April or May, some June and July students may end up driving in the summer too depending on lesson dates and times that may be available.
