Carteret County Driver Education

 The goal of the Carteret County Public School System and its driver education contractor, NC Driving School, is to provide a quality Driver Education program to all students and to provide a base for parents to continue the instruction and supervision of their young driver in developing the necessary knowledge, skill, and attitude needed to become a safe driver.

 Driver Education:

is a state supported service for all students enrolled in school whether public, private, charter or home school, and is included within an area called, “a part of school life”

is required for any person under the age of 18 desiring to receive a driver license or learner’s permit

is a course that consists of 30 hours of class work and 6 hours behind-the- wheel training

 Registering for Driver Education:

 Each school will send information via announcement or Alert Now message that Driver’s Education classes will be starting and then students can either go to the office to sign up or show up on the day classes are to begin and the instructors will then take the first 20-25 oldest students.  The student will need a copy of their birth certificate and will pay a $25.00 registration fee. The registration fee is not due until the student starts driving.  The fee is paid to the company in cash.   Click HERE to see the schedule for each high school.
