Driving time is reduced from 50 hours to 40 hours if the primary driving supervisor takes the calls. If the parent has previously taken the class, no need to take it again. Notify Mr. Hanson that you have done it already with another child to get your certificate. Form and payment are due TODAY. Forms can be picked up in the office. Students who exhibit immaturity in the classroom will be assumed to be too immature to drive a vehicle and will be dismissed from the class without a refund.
