TCSD FOUNDATION SUPPORTS TEEN DRIVER SAFETY WITH GRANT
November 11th, 2008
The Trumansburg Central
School District Foundation is pleased to announce it has awarded a
grant in the amount of $250 to help support the Trumansburg Committee
for Teen Driver Safety. The grant provided funds for Trumansburg
Students’ participation in the Street Survival Clinic held at Watkins
Glen International. The event is an effort to give teens a practical
experience beyond that of normal driver’s education.
This donation of $250 was given by a local Trumansburg business, and a
local individual, and is in direct support for a hands-on driving
clinic with one-on-one instructors to help teen drivers learn specific
skills and improve reaction time.
“This class has showed me what to do in emergency situations and
allowed me to practice reaction skills that I would not be able to
practice on the road,” said Kyle Vandelden, a driving school
participant and student at Trumansburg High School.
"We are happy to help support the Trumansburg Committee for Teen Driver
Safety as it is co-sponsoring this event,” said TCSD President, Tara
Masters.
