Interrupted lessons create gaps in education that can impact student outcomes. We are glad that we are in a position to support the students and help them become safe and confident drivers for life.”
APPLE VALLEY, CA, UNITED STATES, July 1, 2026 /EINPresswire.com/ -- — Nigel Tunnacliffe, co-founder and CEO of Coastline Academy
After nearly 40 years of serving the Apple Valley community in San Bernardino County, Alpha Driving School closed unexpectedly on June 15th, 2026. Due to compliance and licensing issues, the school had paused driving lessons for a number of weeks, leaving students unable to finish their lessons.
Coastline Academy, the nation’s largest driving school, has been serving the students of Apple Valley and surrounding areas since 2022. When notified of the closure, Coastline quickly stepped in to provide free lessons to the hundreds of families that had pre-paid for lessons prior to the closure.
“Supporting safer roads means stepping in when you’re needed,” says Nigel Tunnacliffe, co-founder and CEO of Coastline Academy. “Interrupted lessons create gaps in education that can really impact student outcomes. We are glad that we are in a position to support the students in Apple Valley and mitigate the impact of this disruption to their education, and help them become safe and confident drivers for life.”
