Oregon Area Driving School

The Oregon Area Driving School would like to share this reminder from the Wisconsin Department of Transportation. Please share this reminder so we can get this notice out to all students.

Reminder: Our next Driver Education Grant release will be January 20th, 2026. We would like to follow up with some simple tips & reminders when redeeming coupons.

Tips for successful reimbursement:

Student information entered in DEC must match the student information entered into the application exactly, date of birth, middle name, last name(s). If any part is hyphened, include this within DEC. We suggest asking students to forward the confirmation email because the PDF that is attached includes the student information.
When entering students into DEC, ensure no additional spaces or characters are entered into the fields. (especially AFTER you copy/paste the coupons into the fields).
After you have entered a coupon, tab or click out of the coupon field before hitting submit. This will ensure a green check mark and reimbursement amount populates. (If you see a price discrepancy, please do not redeem the coupon and contact us for a fee change)
If you are entering both classroom and behind the wheel courses, please enter and submit one at a time. Coupons will only redeem in the course 1 field.
Classroom course must be entered BEFORE behind the wheel if you are redeeming both. If behind the wheel is redeemed first, the classroom coupon will automatically cancel.

Reminders:

The grant program is not to be used as a refund program. If the student has made partial payments, down payments or has a balance due, a refund will not be issued in place of payment from the grant.
DMV will continue auditing grant recipients of the grant and driver training schools at random. This ensures that funds are going to students and families that are qualified to receive them, and fees remain the same for grant vs non grant students.

If you are currently enrolled to receive driver education grant funding, there are no additional steps needed to be able to redeem coupons under the new funding.



If you are not enrolled in the driver education grant program, unsure of your status or have any other additional questions, please reach out to us at: [email protected]

As our valued partner, Wisconsin DMV will continue to provide you with updates as soon as they become available.

Thank you,

Just a reminder to young drivers and parents of young drivers who are experiencing winter road conditions for the first time. Students take your time on the roads, the conditions can turn bad in a hurry. All it takes is one slippery spot on what seems to be good road conditions. Increase your following distance and increase your stopping distance. Parents think back on how much actual winter driving experience your young driver has. You might want to watch them carefully until they get comfortable driving in winter conditions. Please share this so we can spread the word to all young drivers, not just former students of the Oregon Area Driving School. Be safe out there.

Boys 2025-26 Schedule

The Oregon Area Driving School has a few openings for the online courses in January and February. We will have more openings in March, April, May, and June. Summer class registration will be opening up soon.
Students can get their temporary license/permit at 15 years old. Therefore, they can start the course at 14 years and 10 months. It is not required that the student get their permit at 15, however it is possible if a parent agrees. The more time they have to practice is better for their confidence level. Plan ahead to register your student soon after they turn 14 for a course start date closer to their birthday.
