MEMORANDUM
DATE: January 2012
TO: Students Born On or Before May 23, 1997
In order to take Driver Education, you must be 15 years old prior to the end of the course.
FROM: Caroline Musin Berkowitz
RE: Driver Education
As in the past, CJHS will host a driver education class by Adams School of Driving on our campus. Classes will
meet here after school from 4:10 to 5:10 p.m. on select Monday, Tuesday, and Thursday afternoons throughout
the second semester, except for holidays, school breaks, etc. We encourage our families to choose to take driver
education here; we have found that having the class over an extended period of time helps our students to
balance their homework better than the other scheduling options also provided by Adams.
These dates have been selected with great care to minimize conflicts; however, we realize that conflicts will
occur. You should work out any conflicts with the driver education instructor, as this is an Adams class located
on the CJHS campus, not a CJHS class. Classes will take place on the dates listed below.
This year, Adams will not provide a permit trip. Students will be given the permit applications and may go to
the DOT as soon as they are 15 years old to obtain their permits.
In this attachment, you will find the following documents: an enrollment form,
rules and regulations, and a driver education approval form (to be signed by
Mr. Scher).
Please complete the enrollment forms and send them, along with payment,
directly to Adams School of Driving. All driver education fees and paperwork
go directly to Adams. Do not bring them to school—except to have Mr. Scher
sign your approval form. You will want to submit your enrollment forms and
fees as soon as possible, as class begins Monday, February 6.
Please also let me know that you are signing up for Driver Education so that we
can plan appropriately for space.

Dear Parents: Please read carefully and sign where indicated below-
I. PAYMENT – The cost of the Advantage Plus Program is $570.00; the Basic Course is $495.00. The balance of either
course is due the first day of class. No student will be allowed to receive his or her permit until the course is paid in full.
A $25.00 fee will be charged on any returned check.
II. ATTENDANCE - is required by the State of Illinois. Only four (4) absences are allowed, and must be made up within 60
days at an Adams classroom convenient to you. Failure to make up classes missed will result in a failing grade. No
refund of any kind will be given since Adams is willing and able to fulfill its obligations to its students. Unexcused
absences or tardiness will result with penalty points assessed on following quiz.
III. PERMIT TRIP – To go for your permit, you MUST be 15 years old and bring with you the following IDs: Make sure that
you get the permit application back from the instructor BEFORE going to the secretary of state office.
1. PROOF OF BIRTH: (One of the following) 3. PROOF OF ADDRESS: (such as)
a) CERTIFIED Birth Certificate a) Piece of mail addressed to you
b) VALID Passport b) Report Card
c) CERTIFIED/Sealed High School Transcript c) School ID (if it contains address)
2. PROOF OF SIGNATURE: (such as) 4. $20.00 License Fee (Payable to Secretary of State)
a) Social Security Card (MUST HAVE for license!) 5. Eye Glasses or Contacts (if you need them)
b) Bank Book/Credit Card 6. Permit Application with the instructor’s signature
c) School ID (without signature is ok)
IV. BEHIND-THE-WHEEL LESSONS - students will be picked up and dropped off at home, work, or school at no extra
charge. We encourage all students to keep scheduled appointments in order to avoid delays in receiving certification. We
require a minimum of 24-hours notice if a student is unable to keep their behind-the-wheel appointment as
scheduled (a Monday appointment must be cancelled by 2:00 pm on Saturday). The lesson must be cancelled
by a telephone, and by speaking with a phone counselor. Cancellations will not be accepted on line. A
rescheduling fee of $65.00 will be charged if appropriate notice is not provided ($50.00 for a 45 minute
lesson). If a student cannot keep an appointment due to Illness on the day of their lesson, they must call between
7:45 am and 8:00 am in order to avoid a cancellation fee (Sunday appointments must be cancelled by 2:00
pm Saturday). NO EXCEPTION OR DISCUSSION OF THE ABOVE RULE WILL BE TOLERATED! Future
lessons will not be scheduled; any lessons already scheduled will be cancelled until the fee is paid. Payment
must be received within 14 days of missed appointment, or permit may be cancelled. Students must have their
permit with them for all lessons, or the instructor cannot give the lesson and the student will be charged the same as if it
were a broken appointment.
Parents acknowledge that students on the Advantage Plus Program will have private lessons and will be driving alone in
the car with the instructor. At times, students taking the Basic Course may be driving without another student in the
car (i.e.: if going during the school day), but must complete 6 hours of observation.
V. STUDENTS must wait for the instructor at the pre-determined location for 15 minutes and then call the school office.
Suburbs call (847/965-6565), Chicago call (773/262-3430). If the student leaves the pick-up point without first
calling the office, there will be a $65.00 charge. NO EXCEPTIONS!!
VI. CONDUCT - All students are expected to conduct them in an orderly manner. If a student misbehaves or causes any
disruption of the class, parents will be called. If the misbehavior continues, students will be removed from the class and
no refund will be given.
VII. UNPAID tuition or cancellation charges, uncompleted work or examinations, unsatisfactory grades, etc., certification
will be withheld until completion or corrections are made.
Our staff is available to answer your questions or help with problems. For your convenience, our office is open Monday thru
Thursday 7:45 am to 9:00 pm, Friday 7:45 am to 6:00 pm, & Saturday 8:00 am to 5:00 pm, 847-965-6565.
