On October 16th, three students from Ramsey High School presented the 2nd Annual AT&T No-Texting And Driving assembly to all students at the high school. Led by Driver Education teacher Kelly Hasslinger, students John Iaccarino, Kelsey Vellucci, and Samantha Spencer designed a 20 minute presentation outlining the dangers of texting while driving and compiled statistics during a school-wide poll.
To help promote their campaign, the students invited neighboring school principals and driver education teachers to attend the assembly in hopes of increasing awareness and to spread the campaign to other schools.
They also promoted the campaign to town residents on Ramsey Day.
