At left students practice the finer points of parallel parking. This is just one of the many useful skills learned in our drivers education course. MR. JAMES WILSON, B.S., M. Ed. Drivers Education The bulletin board in the drivers education room is continuously filled with posters, articles, and other displays which broaden the students' understanding of driving and safety with the automobile. Approximately one third of this course is spent in theory, in learning road signs, hand signals and the like. The other two thirds of the course is spent in actual driving, giving the students experience in addition to knowledge. 27
