Michigan Segment 1 – Groves High School

Segment 1 course consists of 24 hours of classroom time, 6 hours of behind-the-wheel training, and 4 hours of in-car observation. In this segment, we cover basic driving skills, from driving in a neighborhood to getting you on the highway.

We add skits, hands-on activities and guest speakers to keep things interesting. Our students always love the question and answer time with a local police officer. On the last day of class, we meet with parents/guardians to discuss the responsibilities of having a new teen driver in the household. Pertinent information is distributed, and the procedure for getting their teen a Michigan Driver’s License is discussed.

All Star typically holds our Segment One class times anywhere from 2 1/2 to 3 weeks depending on location and schedule. Class time DOES NOT include driving sessions. These sessions are scheduled within the first three days of the class and may be chosen by the students outside of the regularly scheduled class time. By State law, we have up until 3 weeks after the last day of class to finish driving with our students. So in our busy months and with large classes, please keep this in mind. The scheduling for the drive times tends to be very flexible and offered frequently, however, restrictions apply. Please refer to the Segment One Contract or our offices for more information.

**Please be advised that Foreign Exchange Students will not receive any type of Michigan Permit nor will you receive a refund if you decide to take the driver’s education class which is for learning purposes only.

PLEASE NOTE: You must upload all the required paperwork on your student portal at least 7 days before the start of class else you will be removed from the class.
