Next Tuesday the FFA, with assistance from the O'Neill Police Department and Nebraska State Patrol, will be hosting a driver/rider safety day. This is a project designed by the Nebraska FFA Association in partnership with the Nebraska State Career Services Organizations. 

The day will begin with seatbelt checks as students are coming in the parking lot. Officers and FFA members will be checking vehicles and giving lifesavers candy to those wearing a seatbelt and dum-dum suckers along with a mock ticket to those not wearing a seatbelt. Please be patient as students may be a few minutes late to 1st Hour due to the time it takes to conduct seatbelt checks. 

Beginning mid-morning students will be dismissed by grade to participate in a driving course while wearing the drunk goggles in rotation with a role-over simulator demonstration. During the rotations officers will discuss personal experiences with accidents involving texting and driving as well as not wearing a seatbelt. Each grade will be split between the two demonstrations and rotate at 20 minutes. When students are dismissed from class they are to exit the east doors of the school and report to the taped off area of the east end of the parking lot. Please let me know if you have any question. If you have students in your class that period that are behind on work or failing, please feel free to keep them in class to work while their classmates are at the demonstrations.  Rotation Schedule:
