#28 Re: Re: Re: Re:2015-01-09 03:30I agree with comment 27. & those pathway that aren't necessary to you has allowed students.to graduate with CNA and PT certifications. CNA is a certified nursing assistant which costs 3 grand at a technical college. The cosmetology pathway is actual college courses. Drivers Ed is something you should be responsible for as a parent |

#292015-01-09 03:30And drivers Ed in school is going to magically make less accidents? I think not. The teachers do not care about teaching the class just as much as the students do not care to pay attention. Signing this petition is a waste of time. Effingham county BOE will make decisions regardless of "the people". As a parent, if you are concerned, it is your responsibility to teach your child the ways of the road along with what is the better decision. It's called an accident for a reason. ACCIDENT. If you're worried, you don't have to take your kid to even get their license in the first place. If you do not feel comfortable teaching your own child how to drive there are many safety classes to take and many officers that will be willing to personally help. |

#30 Re: Re: Re: Re: Re:2015-01-09 03:40The whole point is some form of driver education should be offered in school. Let's not bash people. As a responsible parent I have taught and I am teaching my children to be responsible drivers. I see nothing wrong with it being offered as an extra class. That a student could sign up for if the wanted. Even if there was a fee that I as a responsible parent would be happy to pay. It should be offered plain and simple. It should not take the place of a required course. |

#312015-01-09 03:42Drivers ed was a great course. With all the car accidents and tragedies that have occurred in the past few years I believe it would be a good idea for the course to return. |

#36 Re:2015-01-09 14:26As the. STUDENT who started this I know my fellow peers want it back as much as I do now wether or not you have a student in these schools or not you would know we've been wanting I back for a while and seeing is how you don't work on the BOE I don't think you obtain any knowledge on the decision they may make |

#392015-01-09 16:55This is such an important thing to have in the schools. Where we live we loose so many high school students due to the lack of experience behind the wheel. They are young and they don't really know how to react to certain situations. Why take out something so important. Why take out some of the things they will never use in life instead. My daughter was killed 2 years ago at the age of 16 in a car wreck. Had she had more experience then maybe she would of known how to react. You can talk to them but until they experience it first hand they really don't know. Just in the last 2 years at least 8 children that I know of in my county alone have been killed in car wrecks. |

#402015-01-09 21:39With as many teen-involved traffic fatalities that Effingham has had, I cannot fathom why in the world they would have even considered getting rid of drivers ed. Bring it back! |

#43 I don't care what the research says2015-01-11 16:57Some will say that there is no research to support Driver's Education actually reducing teen accident rates and that it is too expensive. I still remember almost everything I learned in Driver's Education classes many, many years ago. I don't remember what I learned in History, English, etc. I remember Driver's Education. I remember my instructor stomping on his brake when I messed up a four-way stop. Decades later, I remember what I did wrong EVERY time I approach a four-way intersection. I am floored at what my own kids do not know about driving. I have tried to teach them everything myself. Is every other parent in the county doing that? |
