Northfield Community Education

This class is the first step on the road to a driver's license. We offer a complete driver education program conducted by certified instructors. After completing this class, students will receive a blue card and can take the permit test at a driver's exam station. Cost for replacement of lost or damaged blue cards is $10.

Register for classroom and Behind the Wheel together and save almost 10%! Choose the classroom section that works best for your schedule. Then after your student completes the classroom phase, they will be issued a blue card (Certificate of Enrollment and Classroom Completion). This blue card is necessary to apply for an instruction permit. Once the permit has been obtained, the student should practice driving with parents and then contact us to schedule driving appointments with our Behind the Wheel instructor closer to the date of their road test. *Email Marianne at mmoser@northfieldschools.org or call 507.664.3648 to arrange dates/times that fit your schedule. After successful completion of the Behind-the-Wheel instruction, students will receive a Certificate of Completion Card which is necessary to apply for a driver's license. Cost for replacement of lost or damaged cards is $10. 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) a drop/add fee of $30 will be assessed for each missed appointment if money is refunded, $30 will be subtracted from the registration fee
