Jr. King tests his skill on the driving range. He is driving at an incredible speed of 10 m.p.h. Under Pressure Driving During School There were students in this school who did not sit around a classroom for every class period:.For twenty-two days eight students got to go outside and actually “‘Drive!!’ Of course there were rules: you had to have a learner’s permit, ““And a foot ‘to press the gas pedal” replied senior Gregg Wall- humer. These students got to drive out on the driving range and twice on Route |. When sophomore Scott McNair was ready to go on the road he was surprised, “Coach Trant was really relaxedvand nice. He didn’t try to scare me in any way.” The students liked the class alot except when they had to drive the brown truck. ‘““The brown truck has no power steering which made it really hard to do the exercises” exclaimed junior Andrea Stephens. Another thing that the students disliked was to parallel park. Senior Mike Hobbs explained, “I hated it because after I rolled my car back and forth twenty-five times I was still about four feet away from the curb.” One thing the students all agreed onewas that the class was fun. “The class was like a little break from school” stated Shawn Schmidt who was looking forward to his classroom training so he could hurry and get his license. To all the students this was their chance to gain a little more freedom. Dalphene Parks, the range instructor, had a very positive attitude about all the students she had taught and concluded with the statement, “I truly hope that they develop into safe.and responsible drivers.” This class was not only fun for the studentsy but it also taught them safe driving habits.
