Join the “It Can Wait” Campaign and download the kit to promote awareness of the dangers of texting and driving in your high school.
Some of the activities I am planning for my high school include:
- Promote the Texting and Driving Pledge during lunch.
- Provide opportunities for all students to complete the Online Texting and Driving Simulator during lunch.
- Give out thumb rings or thumb socks for drivers with a valid driver’s license.
- Promote the Sprint Application for silencing emails and texts while driving.
- Put up banners around the school reminding students and staff not to text and drive.
- Put flyers on student/staff cars about the dangers of texting and driving.
