08.06.11-PLEASE make sure you read the Saturday Road Test FAQ page and the Road Test Steps (under Teens) to schedule your Saturday road test. The fee to TDA for an OPTIONAL Saturday road test is $90. (This is because we have to pay the RMV and the staff to prep and sponsor you.) Although the RMV is still allowing you take the test on Saturday, it will NOT be a license unless you have paid them their $70 fee for your 5 year license. This fee is SEPARATE from the TDA Saturday sponsorship fee. You must prepay them in person at RMV or by calling 800-858-EXAM. Failure to do this will result in you going to the RMV to pay them AFTER you pass your Saturday test. It will still only be a PERMIT until they get paid. REMEMBER, you must have completed all your drivers' ed requirements and scheduled your road test 15 days PRIOR to requested Saturday test. The RMV just CHANGED the application form you will need the "day you take the road test"
CLICK HERE TO PRINT THE FORM *****IMPORTANT: DO NOT SCHEDULE A ROAD TEST WITH THE RMV ON YOUR OWN IF YOU PLAN ON GOING FOR A SATURDAY TEST. JUST USE THE LINK ON OUR WEBSITE TO SCHEDULE YOUR SATURDAY ROAD TEST (WE SCHEDULE IT FOR YOU!) SCHEDULE NOW IF YOU KNOW WHEN YOU WANT TO GO--NO NEED TO WAIT UNTIL YOU ARE DONE. FIRST COME, FIRST SERVED! THE RMV WILL NOT ALLOW YOU TO HAVE TWO (2) APPOINTMENTS. THIS WILL RESULT IN THE RMV REMOVING YOU FROM YOUR SATURDAY TEST WITH THE TDA.*****

04.28.10-CANCELLATION POLICY: Students, please be aware of the 24 hour cancellation policy. The last thing we ever want to do is charge you for not adhering to the policy. You won't be happy and neither will your parents. Please read the policy under the 'FAQ' section to make sure you are familiar with it..Thanks
03.28.10-Drivers Ed Certificate..This is what the RMV issues electronically on your driver's history. The exact cost is $15.00 to the RMV. We DO NOT mark this price up in any way. You are simply reimbursing us what we paid the RMV to process your DE certificate.
Mission Statement:
The mission of the Teachers Driving Academy is to provide professional, convenient, and comprehensive driver education courses to all of the students we serve. We believe that driver education is one of the most important classes that will be taken during a person's lifetime. The classroom portion will not only teach the rules of the road, but also make each student aware of the consequences if they do not make good driving decisions. Through quality driving instruction, each student will improve their skills while learning safe driving practices. We will provide driving experience in a variety of situations necessary to make the student knowledgeable and ready for safe and independent operation of a motor vehicle in the Commonwealth of Massachusetts.
