General Information
To participate in Moore County Schools Driver Education, students aged 14 1/2 (on the first day of class) to 18 (must be under 18) must register online or submit a Fee Waiver application (see "register" section). Students MUST reside in Moore County. School location is not a consideration.
**Summer and Spring Break Addendum Information
Classes are scheduled from 8:00 a.m. to 3:30 p.m., Monday – Thursday. Bring lunch, snacks and pencil/paper. Class location will be disclosed prior to class start dates.
Instructor will need to see Social Security card and certified birth certificate before a student can take the driving portion of Driver Education. We do not copy or keep the documentation. It is for verification only. No copies allowed.
Students may miss no more than 3 hours of class time. If more than 3 hours is missed, the student will be dismissed from class and will need to retake the class. Missed time (under 3 hours) must be made up after the final exam. Multiple times may be missed, but not more than 3 hours total.
Class Schedules are subject to change. If the schedule is changed, the scheduled school will make an announcement or the instructor will notify students. Classes are not held on early dismissal days, teacher workdays or if school activities are canceled because of inclement weather or other unforeseen circumstance.
Intervals between Classroom and Behind the Wheel (BTW) Instruction
We are averaging between 6-8 weeks in between Classroom and Behind the Wheel Instruction.
Older students are given priority to schedule BTW instruction. Remember that vision testing and credential submission is the “starting point” for entering the BTW queue.
“Helpful Hint”: Have your student take a picture of their completed Form 800 for later reference and tracking!
Please make sure students are adhering to the school dress code policy during class and the Behind the Wheel portion of the program. Failure to dress appropriately could result in rescheduling training time.
We are not responsible for missed DMV appointments made in advance of your child receiving BTW instruction.
What do I need to have my child bring to the school PRIOR to their DMV appointment, for their permit?
- N.C. Driving Eligibility Certificate, signed by a parent/ legal guardian (BTW instructor will give to the students after successful completion of the program)
- Driver's License Eligibility Issues form, signed by a parent/ legal guardian AND the student (BTW instructor will give to the students after successful completion of the program)
- Certificate of Completion (BTW instructor will give to the students after successful completion of the program)
- Passing 70% of classes
- School Fees Paid
