Driver Education classes are full with registered students for Summer 2021.  Classes will be open for Fall registration in August.  Return to this page on when to register for Fall classes:  Click Here to Register.

 

 Chapel Hill-Carrboro City Schools offers driver education classes to high school students through a private contractor, Jordan Driving School of the Carolinas (JDSC).  Driver Education is considered an after-school activity at the end of the school day.

 

Once the student completes the classroom portion, they are required to complete 6-hours of Behind the Wheel (BTW) driving.   Students will automatically be added to the driving log.  Assignments for driving will be oldest to youngest and could take 2-3 months.

​
