What is the Driver Eligibility Certificate, and how can I get one?
CategoriesDepartment |
As of August 1, 1998, persons less than 18 years of age whom are applying for a permit or license must have this certificate. This certificate states that the student listed is passing at least five of six courses in a regular schedule, or three of four courses in a block schedule and is currently enrolled in school. The certificate is good for thirty days, and then it has to be renewed. Each high school has a person assigned as a contact to issue this certificate (usually a guidance counselor or assistant principal). Neither the lead driver education teacher nor his instructors issue this. Please check with your guidance department or your school secretary for more information.
