How to complete the yellow card

 

  • Pass out one yellow card to each student
  • Have the students take out their driving permits.
  • If a student does not have their permit, or if the student did not bring a permit to class, they are still REQUIRED to fill out a yellow card. Make sure they fill out all of the yellow card information completely. Remind the student that they will need to bring their permits the next day to class. If they did not get their permit, tell the student to complete the yellow card as soon as they get their permit. If they do not have a driving permit by the last day of class, tell the student that you will need a photocopy of the permit for the driving school office.
  • If a student is absent, you must write up a yellow card for each student that is absent. Include the student’s NAME and CLASS NUMBER.
  • Have the students write very, very neatly on the yellow card in BLACK PEN. If a students’ card is messy or unreadable, we will not be able to file for a certificate of completion until a photocopy of their permit is sent to our driving school office. A messy yellow card will delay the process of the certificate of completion.
  • Any questions, please contact our driving school office !
