Additional information:

Students are offered a Driver Education course through Educational Service Unit #3. Students are required to complete 20 hours of classroom instruction and driving lessons leading to the successful passing of the DMV-approved road test. Driver Education includes (1) basic defensive driving, skills, and safety procedures, (2) study and application of rules and regulations that affect our driving. This course is graded and requires a learner permit before behind-the-wheel driving lessons are given. Driving arrangements are made with the instructor allowing flexibility in scheduling. All students must pass all written tests and the DMV-certified road test to obtain a waiver for a Provisional Operator Permit.

IT HAPPENED IN SPRINGFIELD HISTORY

History train

Seven cars of a Rock Island freight derailed near Platteview High School on Sunday January 19, 1983, at 2:15a.m. The derailment was northeast of Springfield. The accident was reported by passerby to the Springfield Police Department. Hopper-type cars filled with soybeans spilled a large quantity down an embankment. Fortunately, no one was injured in the incident. Approximately twenty-five workers were brought to the scene to assist with the clearing the wrecked freight cars, soybeans, and repairing the railroad tracks. Rock Island trains were rerouted to a Burlington-Northern line while the damage was being repaired.
