Choose from online or traditional classroom driver's ed course options. Benefit from experienced behind-the-wheel driving lessons that teach you valuable defensive driving strategies.
The teen program starts with a curriculum introducing road rules, road signs, and elements impacting driver safety. Sign up for In Person or Zoom Classes. Download class calendars. Calendars include course FAQ, tuition schedules, and DPS recommendations.
After passing the permit test, you will receive a certificate to take to the Texas Department of Public Safety (DPS) for your learner's permit.
You can schedule your DPS appointment at public.txdpsscheduler.com/ (Select Service "Apply for First time Texas DL/Permit"). DFW locations typically book their appointments 2-3 months in advance.
DPS offices in smaller cities outside the DFW Metroplex typically have sooner availability. Recommendations include Waxahachie, Stephenville, Tolar, Bryan, Madisonville, and Tyler. Most DPS offices post a limited number of same-day appointments online beginning at 7 AM. These appointments are released 15 minutes before DPS office opening hours.
Verification of Enrollment (VOE) proves that students have at least 90% attendance. During the school year, this document is valid for 30 days. If requested during the last week of school, it is valid until the first day of school in the fall.
During the summer, teens can substitute a copy of their diploma or final report card showing 90% attendance. (The DPS may reject report cards with less than 90% attendance.) Once school starts, only a VOE is accepted in the fall.
You must have a Texas DPS-Issued Learner's Permit with a photo to start driving lessons. Your permit expires on your 18th birthday. You must renew your permit at the DPS to continue driving lessons. Visit public.txdpsscheduler.com/ to schedule an appointment and select "Change, Replace or Renew."
Driving lessons are completed in a driving school vehicle with a passenger-side brake and a TDLR-certified instructor. You must bring your permit to every lesson (photos of your permit are not accepted). In addition to lessons with our school, you must complete 30 hours of driving practice with a Texas-licensed driver age 21 or older.
To schedule/cancel your driving lessons, log in to your student account on our website. Lessons must be canceled at least 24 hours in advance to avoid a late cancellation fee.
You can take your road test once you are 16 and have had your learner's permit for at least six months. Your 6-month date is listed as an F-Restriction on the back of your permit. You must bring the following documents:
All documents are required on the day of your road test otherwise you will incur a rescheduling fee.
