Juniors, Seniors Participate in Mock DWI:
Today, juniors and seniors participated in a Mock DWI, which simulated what it would be like for them to drive at a .24 BAC level. The simulation also included an option for what distracted driving, such as texting, would be like for them. All students who participated in today's simulation signed a pledge where they agreed to never text and drive. We know our students will keep this simulation and pledge in the back of their minds as they prepare for Prom, Ball, and the rest of their lives.
