Well it's better than Rock Valley driving school, however when it comes to the drive time portion,…read morethey're awful. Texting them for a drive time is like texting an uneducated moron. They take days to respond and theyre absolute buffoons when they do respond. Totally unprofessional. Maybe get some young person to work the texting portion and not some old guy wIth an awful personality. Not to mention my son said this Keith guy is so rude when driving. Also, doesn't care about people's peanut allergy. Eating peanut M&Ms while a student is driving is so unprofessional.

I found the scheduling to be…read morerelatively easy, the communication was good and the driving instructors were accommodating and made it clear that they truly cared about the success of their students. You definitely need to be on top of your own scheduling though. It's up to the student to get through their online learning and it's up to the parent/student to continue to schedule each of the behind the wheel lessons. They only open one lesson at a time so you have to budget your time wisely. I would recommend KC's Driving to anyone.

My son took the online course with MADS and it was adequate. However, for the behind-the-wheel…read morecourse, we decided to go to another school with far better scheduling availability. However, obtaining the "Classroom Completion--Notice of Transfer" form--that we needed by law, apparently--was like extracting a tooth. It wasn't that MADS was begrudging us for jumping ship. Rather, Jim, whom I'm guessing is the owner, was simply overwhelmed or unable to deal with the newfangled computer technology. He sent a screenshot of the form that was not submitted to DMV, and the new driving school wouldn't accept that. It took nearly a week of many ignored text messages and screenshots, unanswered phone calls to Jim (but no voice messages--MADS voicemail was full) for him to finally realize that he needed to merely hit the "submit" button on that screen for the form to go to the DMV, who would then forward to us. Jim, when I was able to get him on the phone, finally, even suggested that the form was lost at DMV. So I spent a good hour on the phone with DMV to track it down. What a colossal waste of time for something that should've been automatic! Ultimately, I was disappointed by how Jim handled the entire mess. On the one hand, he did his best. On the other, DMV said that MADS should've directly given us that completion form when my son completed the online course. This seems very unprofessional of MADS not to have. So, MADS seems like an average driving school, but a bit technologically challenged, overwhelmed, and not responsive. Had Jim simply listened to the problem and reacted responsibly--or apologized--I would've given the school 3 stars, or not written a review at all.
