Road to Reality on tap

NEW LENOX — Lincoln-Way Central High School will sponsor the Road to Reality project beginning 4:30 p.m. Tuesday at the high school.

The Road to Reality program is an event targeting 10th-grade students to raise awareness of the physical, emotional and legal consequences of the underage use of alcohol and/or use of drugs and the possible consequences of making those choices.

“This year, as last year, we want to focus on high school sophomore students because we think Road to Reality is such a great program, the students are enrolled in drivers education, and the Road to Reality deals with making decisions about driving. However, all Lincoln-Way Central High School students are invited to come,” Principal Steve Provis said.

The first tour will leave the high school at 4:30 p.m. The last tour will leave at 6:35 p.m.

Call Laurie Knick at 815-462-2255.
