Driver's Education: Morse High School w/Bryan

with Bryan Fortier

Calendar Next available session starts Apr 7, 2026 at 2:30 pm, runs for 4 weeks
1 additional session on Jul 14, 2026

Ages: 15 - 19

Parents:  It is vital that your student arrive on time for class.  Due to late arrivals, students are falling 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:  Parents are required to attend the last 45 minutes of the first class AND participate in a ride-along with your child for one hour of their 10 hour driving lessons requirement. 

**Please Note: A make-up fee applies to all missed classes and driving sessions. ** **

Class and Driving Makeup Fees: 

  • Classroom: $40/hr ($120 per class)
  • Driving: $80/hr ($160 per session)
