Queen City High School Project Graduation received a $1,000 prize on Tuesday for the third place driver safety video created by students in Mrs. Sheppard’s AV class. The students worked as a team to write, shoot and produce a short video Public Service Announcement (PSA) that emphasized the dangers teen drivers sometimes face, such as distracted driving, speeding, not wearing seat belts, or driving under the influence. In doing so, they earned a mini-grant from TxDOT to spend on Project Graduation.
