The Driver Education Program at Moore Catholic High School is open to students of any high school on Staten Island who are enrolled in a diploma or certificate program as well as high school graduates. All course work and instruction is delivered by teachers certified according to the requirements of the Department of Education of the State of New York as well as the Department of Motor Vehicles. This Driver Education course includes 24 hours of classroom instruction, 6 hours of behind-the-wheel training and 18 hours of observation in the car. An MV-285 (Trained Driver Certificate) is awarded upon successful completion of the course. Our program is conducted as an after-school and summer program. Age Requirements: Permit and Driving Regulations The student must be 16 by the first day of the course but this is a minimum age. We recommend and prefer that a student be as close to the 17th birthday as possible when the course ends. The graduated licensing law does not all0w a road test unless the student is 17 or has additional hours of instruction. No permit is required for Driver Education in an approved high school. When Driver Ed. Is finished, 17 and 16 year old permit holders may practice with a parent only if there is a dual brake in the car. After passing the road test, 17 year olds may drive but 16 year olds have no driving privileges in NYC and must wait until they turn 17. Summer Hours: Mon - Fri. 8am to 1 pm
