Carlisle High School was proud to welcome Dr. Khalid Mumin, Secretary, PA Dept. of Education, Craig Shuey, Chief Operating Officer, PA Turnpike, and Kara Templeton, Deputy Secretary for Driver & Vehicle Services, to launch the New Driver Work Zone Safety Program with our Herd Strong CHS students!
From the PAcast website "...statewide training program to improve new driver safety and roadway worker protection. The launch took place at Carlisle High School to highlight teen driver safety during National Teen Driver Safety Week.
Pennsylvania's New Driver Work Zone Safety Program is a training project that uses engaging videos, infographics, knowledge checks, and powerful testimonials to teach new drivers work zone laws, signage and key facts, in addition to offering real-life scenarios to enhance understanding. This new program launched during National Teen Driver Safety Week, an annual observance aimed at educating safe driving among teens, and all new drivers in the commonwealth."
For more information on the program, the launch at CHS, the involvement of CHS students, and great interviews with CHS students Janessa Lingenfelter and Griffin Pak at the 19 minute mark, please watch the presentation at https://pacast.com/m?p=26571.
Many thanks to CHS Driver Education Teachers Justin Kretzing and Kyle Brengel!
Herd 'Driving Safely' Strong!
