Schools Use Video For Highway Saftey

ATLANTA ­– Several area schools use video to encourage their peers to make safe decisions behind the wheel. One school in Bowie County placed second in the statewide competition and was awarded thousands in reimbursable grant money. In addition, schools in Cass and Titus Counties won awards in the district contest.

The competition, sponsored by the Texas Department of Transportation (TxDOT), helps students win funds for their prom or graduation parties, known as Project Celebration events. In addition, we designed the circumstances to provide alcohol-and-drug-free activities for students following prom or graduation.

Texas High received $8,000, winning the Atlanta District competition and placing second in the statewide competition.
