Students must be at least 15 years old, have successfully completed 30 hours of Classroom Drivers Education and have their permit. We recommend completing your three 2-hour sessions close to the time of your DMV road test. Focus on logging practice hours first, then contact us 6-8 weeks before your test to schedule your appointments. The Behind the Wheel scheduling link is provided upon request once a student is officially registered for the program. *Contact Marianne Moser, Enrichment Coordinator, at mmoser@northfieldschools.org or 507.664.3648 with any questions.
Then after successful completion of the Behind-the-Wheel instruction, students information is entered into the Minnesota DVS system which is necessary to apply for a driver's license (paper white cards are no longer issued).
Please note: If you fail to attend the driving appointment you are registered for or cancel your appointment on the same day (within 12 hours)
