Driver's Education: Brunswick High School
with Pierre Martin, Merrymeeting Community & Adult Education
Ages: 15 - 19
Parents: It is vital that your student arrive on time for class. Due to late arrivals, students have fallen short of their 30 hours of class time and must make up the time. Because the State of Maine requires 30 hours of class time, if your student arrives late, they will be turned away, and a charge will apply (below) for the class to be made up. It is very important that your student arrives on time. Unfortunately, we cannot make any exceptions. Thank you for your understanding.
**Please Note: A make-up fee applies to all missed classes and driving sessions. ** **
Class and Driving Makeup Fees:
- Classroom: $40/hr
- Driving: $80/hr
Please bring a birth certificate or passport to the first class and a pen to every class. Parents/Guardians must attend the last 45 minutes of the first class and participate in a ride-along with their child, which the instructor and the parent will schedule.
