A Legacy of Community Commitment

Founded over four decades ago, Rhodes Driving Schools is a family-owned business that has grown alongside San Antonio. Our mission goes beyond teaching people to drive—we aim to foster safer roads and empower our community with the skills and confidence to navigate them. With four locations across the city, we’ve made driver education accessible to families from Alamo Heights to the South Side, helping generations of drivers earn their Texas driver’s licenses.

Our commitment to the community is reflected in:

1. Trusted Reputation: Thousands of San Antonio residents have chosen Rhodes for their driver education, from teens earning their first license to adults building new skills.
2. Local Engagement: As a family-owned business, we understand the unique needs of San Antonio’s drivers, from navigating busy highways like I-10 to handling suburban roundabouts.
3. Economic Support: By employing state-certified instructors and staff from the local area, we contribute to the city’s economy and create opportunities for San Antonians.

Promoting Road Safety in San Antonio

At Rhodes, we believe that well-trained drivers make safer roads. Our comprehensive programs—offered in-person and online—equip students with the knowledge and skills to drive responsibly. Here’s how we promote road safety:

1. Defensive Driving Focus: Our curriculum emphasizes defensive driving techniques, such as maintaining safe following distances, checking blind spots, and anticipating hazards. These skills reduce accidents and make San Antonio’s roads safer.
2. State-Certified Instruction: Our instructors, each with over 10 years of experience, are certified by the Texas Department of Licensing and Regulation (TDLR), ensuring top-quality training.
3. Court-Approved Courses: Our defensive driving courses help drivers dismiss tickets and lower insurance rates, encouraging safer driving habits across the community.
4. Teen and Adult Education: From our 32-hour teen driver education program to the six-hour adult course, we prepare drivers of all ages to navigate San Antonio’s diverse road conditions safely.

By training thousands of drivers annually, Rhodes is helping create a culture of safety on San Antonio’s roads.

Unique Community Services: Shuttle to Brandeis High School

One of the ways Rhodes stands out is our shuttle service to Brandeis High School, a unique offering that supports local students and families. This service:

1. Enhances Convenience: Teens at Brandeis High School can easily access our driver education programs without disrupting their school schedules.
2. Supports Busy Families: Parents save time and effort, knowing their teen can get to and from lessons safely and efficiently.
