[quform id="4" name="san antonio"]A Small City With a Story Behind Its Name
Charlotte is a city in Atascosa County, part of the San Antonio metropolitan area. It is named for Charlotte Simmons, daughter of Dr. Charles Simmons, who helped develop Atascosa County.
The townsite was laid out.
Charlotte incorporated as a city.
State Highway 97 and FM 140 meet in town, southwest of Jourdanton, the county seat.
CDL School Charlotte TX is for residents who want a career skill they can use on any road: a Class A commercial driver's license.

How to Prepare for the Knowledge Tests
For CDL School Charlotte TX students, the Class A permit usually requires general knowledge, air brakes and combination vehicles tests. A simple study plan:
Use the official Texas CDL handbook
It is the source the test questions are based on. Read one section at a time.
Build an English vocabulary list
Write down terms like "slack adjuster," "fifth wheel" and "glad hands" with their meaning.
Practice a little every day
Twenty minutes a day during the week works better than cramming on Sunday night.
Ask your trainer
Our bilingual trainer can explain hard concepts in Spanish so you understand them in English.
Sharing the Road With Ranch Traffic
Around Charlotte you will see cattle grazing off State Highway 97 and farm equipment on rural roads. Good habits for these routes:
- Watch for the orange slow-moving vehicle triangle on tractors and farm equipment
- Slow down early: a loaded truck needs much more distance to stop
- Be ready for livestock or wildlife near the road, especially at dawn and dusk
- Pass only with a long, clear view ahead on two-lane highways
Weekends, Stick Shift and Bilingual Help
Train on weekends with a flexible schedule, and complete part of the ELDT theory at home. Manual stick shift training is included at no extra cost, and automatic training is available; testing in an automatic truck can restrict your CDL to automatic transmissions.
