Opening 5 Driving Range construction underway Plans for the new Driver’s Education program were a long time in the making, but this spring things got underway. The new driving course was slated to be completely done and ready for classes by June 30. Construction being done in the Little League base- ball field for the simulated driving range was sup- ervised by everyone. Instructors for the new style program will be Mr. Stewart Hammell and Mr. Moe Rhody. When asked about student enrollment in the Driver’s Ed program, Mr. Rhody said, “The program will handle 360 students a year, 180 every semester.” As most sophomores enroll in the class, enrollment will be on a “first come-first serve” basis. The course will be a total of 52 hours, 30 hours of class, 12 hours of simulation, eight hours on the new range, and two hours at the wheel. This exceeds the Indiana State Requirements. 1. A construction worker sands the new floor in the driver’s education building. 2. Men set up wood blocks in preparation for pouring con- crete. 3. Lumber was a necessity in remodeling the old Little League baseball building. 4. Work continues as the deadline for completion draws nearer. 5. Construction crew members take a break in their busy day of work on the range.
