Dryden High School students participated in the Arrive Alive Tour, the nation’s #1 distracted and impaired driving simulator today. Using virtual reality technology and a fully functioning vehicle simulator, students safely experienced the dangers of distracted and impaired driving while learning the importance of making responsible choices behind the wheel.

Following the simulation, students completed an anonymous survey, received a mock citation, and had the opportunity to take a digital pledge to drive S.A.F.E. Thank you to Mrs. Margrif, our SADD Chapter, and everyone who helped make this impactful learning experience possible for our students!
