Teen Driver Ed Courses

How It Works

Step 1:  Zoom Classroom

The teen program starts with a 3-week or 4-week class during the school year. 1-week options are available during the summer and school holiday breaks. Class calendars are available for download on our Rules & Resources Page. Calendars include FAQs for the course, tuition schedules and recommendations for DPS. 

After passing the permit test, A+ Academy Driving School will issue the certificate needed to receive the learner permit from the Texas Department of Public Safety (DPS).

  • Schedule your DPS appointment at public.txdpsscheduler.com/
  • Select Service "Apply for First time Texas DL/Permit"
  • DFW locations typically book their Learner Permit appointments 2-3 months in advance
    • Appointments can be scheduled at ANY DPS location in Texas.
    • DPS offices in smaller cities, typically have sooner availability.
    • Recommended locations to check for sooner appointments include Waxahachie, Stephenville, Tolar, Bryan, Madisonville & Houston
  • Most DPS offices make a limited number of same-day appointments available online at the beginning of their day. These can be booked via their scheduling website

*** VERIFICATION OF ENROLLMENT ***

The VOE proves that students have at least 90% attendance.
  • During the school year, this document is valid for 30 days
  • If the VOE is requested the LAST WEEK of school, this document is valid during the summer until the first day of school
  • During the summer, teens can substitute the VOE with:
      • a Diploma or a FINAL Report Card showing 90% attendance
      • Final Report Cards with less then 90% attendance may be rejected by the Texas Department of Public Safety (DPS)
  • Once school starts, Report Cards will no longer be accepted & students will be required to bring in a VOE
 

Step 2:  In-Car Lessons

Teens must have the Texas DPS-issued learner permit, with their photo, BEFORE they can start the in-car driving lessons. 

All learner permits EXPIRE on a teen's 18th birthday. Students will need to renew their learner permit at the DPS to continue the program.

  • When scheduling for an appointment to renew a permit, select the service for "Change Replace or Renew" on the DPS scheduling website.

Driving appointments will be completed in a driving school vehicle, with a passenger-side brake and a certifiied instructor. 

 

Students will schedule and cancel driving lessons through their student account.

  • Students are required to bring a hard copy of their learner permit to every lesson.
  • Photos of a learner permit will not be accepted.
  • Lessons cancelled within 24-hours or missed will incur a fee on the student account.

Students must complete 30-hours of in-car driving practice at home with a Texas licensed adult driver age 21 or older.

 

 Transferring To Our School

Teens transferring to A+ Academy Driving School to complete their required driving hours must notify their classroom provider. The provider will send your records and proof of completed classroom hours to our office.

Parent Taught students unable to finish their program are eligible to transfer to us to complete their 7-hours of driving & 7-hours of observation.

Step 3:  Road Testing

Documents needed for the road test, Teens must:

  • Hold a Texas learner permit for 6-months. 
    • F-Restriction date on back of the learner permit
    • All learner permits EXPIRE on the 18th birthday.  Students must renew an expired learner permit before they can book their road test
  • Bring a hard copy of the "For Driver License Only" certificate showing completion of Teen Drivers Ed. A+ Academy Driving School will provide the certificate for hours completed with our school
  • Be at least 16 years old
  • Bring a current Verification of Enrollment issued by the High School
  • Bring a completed 30-hour log. The adult who signed off on your hours must be present at your appointment for additional document signatures
  • Complete & bring the printed Impact Texas Teen Driver Program completion certificate.
    • Valid for 90 days. Student must rewatch the program if the certificate expires.

Students must bring an insured vehicle to complete the road test. The list of documents needed for the Road test are listed on the DPS Road Test tab.
