Safe Decisions Week at Bay High School

As an insurance agent, there is nothing more important in my mind than talking about and educating drivers regarding the ramifications of distracted driving. To date, texting while driving, as well as other activities that distract drivers, have been the cause of over 10,000 accidents in Ohio. This is an epidemic.

This week, Sept. 9-13, Bay High School is hosting Safe Decisions Week for students. This week will include a number of educational, fun and interactive events to help our Bay High School drivers learn about distracted driving. They will also be encouraged to sign a banner that they commit to making safe decisions. The grand finale of the week with be the Sept. 13 Bay High football game, where the players will be wearing special new Safe Decisions football uniforms.

I have worked with Matt Spellman, Bay Schools athletic director, to make this week special and meaningful for our Bay High drivers. Our goal is to educate and protect our Bay High drivers by teaching them to make safe decisions.
