Driving Schedules: 

Gov. Cooper has approved the start of driver education “on road” training.  Once DPI gives the official start date, BCS will begin to call students to discuss appointment options. The process will begin with the 130 March students that completed class but were put on hold due to COVID 19.

• Though age is consider in booking/calling students, it is not guaranteed that the process will work only by, “oldest to youngest” when scheduling.
• Instructors will call parent/guardian to discuss the Behind the Wheel appointment options.
