To All Present Students, Parents and Potential New Customers
If you would take the time to read this page, it should answer some of your questions and concerns.
Here is the update at the Driving School:
The Driving School was put in Partial Quarantine. Not all Employees were compromised. The Zoom classes are still on going. We are only doing one time frame for the time being. 4-6pm.
The School will be going through a deep cleaning on Wednesday, Jan.13, 2021
Driving lessons that were cancelled will be rescheduled. We will reach out to you.
Most of you know because of Covid we were closed for 3 months when it came to the driving lessons. So, we are behind when it comes to the driving lessons by at least 3 months.
The driving lessons are scheduled in the order that you signed up at the driving school. Every 38 program student is automatically put on that list.
Yes, we did train 3 new driving instructors. The training started in Aug. 2020 and finished in Sept 2020. We had to wait for background checks before the DMV would allow the instructors to take the instructor test. Once the back ground checks came in, we scheduled the test. The Dmv was backed up as well, so we could not get the instructor test until October. Once the instructor passes the test, there is still another process that DMV goes through, and we weren’t able to get licenses till Nov. One of the trainee’s got a fulltime job somewhere else and will not be doing driving instruction. That puts us down to 2 new instructors only. I was able to get another instructor to give us help on the weekends. I have another previous instructor that is willing to help but must resubmit paperwork to be licensed. I have reached out to other driving schools to see if they have any driving instructor’s available to help us out.
This may not be the appropriate place to put up an add so to speak for driving instructors but here we go, desperate times. If anyone is looking for job and you think Driving Instruction might work for you, please give the school a call.
Parents of students already signed up and are waiting on us to schedule driving lessons, I do have some suggestions, that will help get through this backlog, that I will present to you when I call you to set up driving lessons.
Students and Parents, you have been incredibly patient and supportive in our current situation. Trust that I am doing all that I can to not take advantage of that. If at any time, you do not want to stay on at the driving school and want to move on to another, I am in full support of whatever you want to do. The online classes you can get in, so if you want to finish with that, I recommend it, if you are already enrolled.
