What will I need to bring to class

Students who have never had a permit will be required to take their permit test - Students make take their permit test with a State certified schools or the Department of Motor Vehicles. If a student takes the full program and a resident of Kansas, may take their permit test with the school, and receive a temporary paper permit once they have passed. They are still required to have it changed at the DMV if 14 - 16 years of age. This is the date their 1 full year begins.
Students are not required to have a permit to join our State Certified Full Program; they must have a valid permit to drive any motor vehicle.

Drive Times M-F 7 am - 8 pm Saturdays/Sunday - Call Hours Vary with Instructor
Students needing to schedule the driving portions of the Program, will call our scheduler. Bi State will enter your lesson/lessons into our scheduling system, this generates the student both an email and a text message. The system send's the students information to the student and our instructor with the dates and times of each lesson. It will also regenerate a text message to remind the student of their appointment. This help's avoid confusion about the scheduled lesson, and avoids additional cost for a missed appointment. Lessons can be changed/cancelled, if you call the office/scheduler and instructor 24 hours prior to the scheduled lesson. We work to get students through as quickly as possible, do to Covid mandated closings for 2 1/2 months during the lockdown, this has put all schools behind and are working to catch up previous students. We work to always be fair and take students in the order they came through the school. We are up front and open when people join any of our programs, students can begin the classroom portions and obtain their permit, the driving will be scheduled in the order they began the program.
Kansas and Missouri both have laws against texting and driving.
Motor distractions cause more deaths than drunk drivers. So please buckle up and don't text while driving.
