Driver’s Education Classroom Theory and Behind the Wheel Instruction

In partnership with United Driving School the WestAllis-West Milwaukee Recreation Department is happy tooffer for the first time, behind the wheel instruction. Driver’s education is very important to build a foundationfor your young driver. But learning to drive does not haveto be so serious that it ruins the enjoyment of learning.United Driving School incorporates games, outdoor activities, group activities and even has pizza/donut parties to keep your young driver engaged and excited todrive. Once your child has accomplished the 30 hours ofclassroom theory, United Driving School will then schedule behind the wheel instruction for your child andyour child can complete their driving experience with thesame instructor who taught theclassroom theory. This is animportant milestone for teens,and the experience should bememorable and not forgettable.
