As students assume the grave responsibilities of driving a car, they are provided with the proper instruction by the Driver Education Department. The students are given classroom instruction concerning the mechanics of an automobile and other information related to rules and regulations of the road, and the care of the car. In addition, they are given actual driving experience on the open highway and in city traffic and practice in controlling a car in various driving situations. The course was greatly supplemented this year by the addition of a driving range in the C.H.S. parking lot. The City of Clearwater offers the opportunity to practice in city traffic and to learn other traffic skills essential to becoming a good driver.
