Alive at 25 - Empower your teen with confidence to handle the open road and return home safe! Tragically, the number one killer of teens is motor vehicle crashes. That is why the Kentucky State Police (KSP), Toyota and the National Safety Council (KSC) are joining forces with the high schools and local businesses across Kentucky to ensure that novice drivers survive their most dangerous driving years. Alive at 25 is a 4½-hour driver's awareness course designed by the National Safety Council for young drivers ages 16-24, which includes:
Defensive driving classroom curriculum
Gain awareness and develop strategies to keep safe on the road.
Decision-making and responsibility-taking
Learn through interactive media, workbook exercises, role-playing, and class discussions.
Henderson County High School will offer Alive at 25 on September 20, 2017 from 3:30 pm – 7:45 pm. Instructor will be Sgt. Jonathon N. Whittaker Unit #216. If you have any questions, you can contact Shawna Evans in the YSC shawna.evans@henderson.kyschools.us

Pay Attention to Your Child's Attendance
Did you know?
• Students should miss no more than 9 days of school each year to stay engaged, successful and on track to graduation.
• Absences can be a sign that a student is losing interest in school, struggling with school work, dealing with a bully or facing some other potentially serious difficulty.
• By 6th grade, absenteeism is one of three signs that a student may drop out of high school.
• By 9th grade, regular and high attendance is a better predictor of graduation rates than 8th grade test scores.
• Missing 10 percent, or about 18 days, of the school year can drastically affect a student’s academic success.
• Students can be chronically absent even if they only miss a day or two every few weeks.
• Attendance is an important life skill that will help your child graduate from college and keep a job.
