Buckle Up! First Grade Girls Get Licensed

Drivers License, 1st grade girls
Buckle Up! First Grade Girls Get Licensed
January 26, 2023

Buckle up! SCH has a new cohort of licensed drivers.

For more than 30 years, Betty Ann Fish, chair of the Physical Education Department at SCH Academy, has been teaching Lower School girls the rules of the road. They learned everything from recognizing and responding to road signs to staying in control in the driver's seat (aka the scooter seat).

Watch the video to see the fun our 1st grade girls had this week in PE!
