About Us
Our mission is to make it easy to get a driver’s license.
We’ve created an outstanding customer experience. Our engaging, empathetic, and friendly team work in partnership with our students to prepare them for a lifetime of safe driving, all while navigating the complexities of state regulations.
History
The Next Street was founded in 2009 with a commitment to education and a mission to make it easy to get a license. Today, we are the industry leader in driver training and license test services for new drivers. We provide high-quality driver education with a fanatic approach to each customer journey. Despite our size, we are not a franchise nor large corporation. We are family owned and family operated, and we take pride in supporting and being a part of the local communities where we work and live. We aspire to be a national provider of driver education and license testing services.

After being notified of trademark infringement, All-Star Driver rebrands to The Next Street and moves all focus to making it easy to get a license by providing outstanding customer service.
2020

March 16, 2020 – COVID-19 forced us to close the business operations, furlough all staff members and park all vehicles. At the time, we thought it would be for 2 weeks.

Today
We operate over 80 driving schools between Greenwich, CT and Boston, MA. We continue to open new locations and expand our service offerings, while never losing sight of what makes us great. We do right by our customers and do right by our staff and trust that everything else will get worked out.
Values
BE CURIOUS
You believe in self-improvement and becoming the best version of yourself. You also believe in teaching and helping others become the best versions of themselves. Seek to be more valuable tomorrow than you are today. Look for training opportunities, not only in formal education settings, but in the everyday course of business and life. Read books, listen to podcasts, watch lectures, take classes and use your time and experience each day to be better tomorrow.
BE NICE
Be a good co-worker, be a good neighbor, be a good human. Make the world a better place with every action you take. We achieve our goals by surrounding ourselves with a team of passionate and positive peers.
THINK POSITIVELY
The glass is always half full. Positive mindsets will lead to positive outcomes. Seek the good in others and the world that surrounds you and that positive energy becomes contagious. Optimism wins every time.
