This past week we celebrated BALโs first cohort of the 2025 fiscal year โ a small ceremony marking a major milestone for tomorrowโs drivers.
Weโve been truly amazed by the enthusiasm our students have shown throughout the program. This moment represents more than simply learning how to drive. It represents access, opportunity, and a new perspective on whatโs possible after high school.
In a city where driving often isnโt prioritized, weโre proud to help bridge the gap, giving students a comprehensive understanding of how a license can become a tool for independence, employment, and long-term success.
A small moment, but a big step forward.
Congratulations to Cohort #1 at ๐

At Drive Forward Academy, we believe opportunity can start at the wheel but it doesnโt end there.
True success requires more than just technical skill; it requires a network, a vision, and a seat at the table. This season, we were honored to host local entrepreneurs and industry leaders for an intimate workshop with our students.
Weโre bridging the gap between the classroom and the boardroom, ensuring our graduates are not just ready to drive, but ready to lead.

Did you know? Thereโs a growing shortage of truck drivers across the country, and itโs impacting everything from delivery times to supply chains. As the demand for goods continues to rise, we need more skilled drivers to keep things moving. If youโve ever thought about joining the industry, now might be the perfect time to get started!
