About Chesapeake Driving School
Chesapeake Driving School, LLC is owned and operated by public school teachers in Calvert county. The MVA requires each instructor to go through training and pass exams in order to teach drivers education.
In addition to this extensive training, many of our instructors have actual college degrees in teaching, are fully certified teachers through the Maryland State Department of Education, and have decades worth of combined teaching experience at the secondary level.
