HEADLINES February 3, 2003 Parent-taught Driver Education Moves Forward in Virginia On Saturday, February 4, the Virginia House of Delegates passed a bill that allows parents to teach the behind-the-wheel portion of driver education. House Bill 2404 now moves on to the Virginia Senate. HB 2404 passed with strong bi-partisan support. Twenty-two Democrats voted in favor of the bill. A handful of Republicans voted against it. Currently, parents are allowed to teach the classroom portion of Driver's Education and up to 40 hours of the in-car portion. The remaining 10 hours in-car must be completed by a certified education, whether at a commercial driving school or the public school. Most public schools do not let home school students take their course. Some commercial schools charge as much as $200 for the behind-the-wheel training. Sometimes there are long waiting lists. Especially in rural areas, parents may need to drive hours to get to a commercial school.

Your son won't do what he must do. He drives me crazy, yes it's true! He will stall and squirm and hum, and leave all of his work undone. He dreams and will not pay attention, have you considered medication? With other kids he does not play, he is alone much of the day. Something does not seem quite right, because I know he must be bright. He seems to learn, despite the rest, but the work is not his best. He is disruptive, yes it's true. He just won't do what he must do! Yes, teacher, I can really see, how frustrating all this must be, A child who does not meet the norm, a child whose mold won't fit the form. I've had him tested on WISC-III, by your approved test agency. He scores far higher than the mean, there's more to this that can be seen. So help us, help us find the way, to teach this child best if we may. He is not like the rest you see, he acts and thinks far differently.

Chapters: Glossary Chapter 8 pdf version Every time you step outdoors and look to the horizon, you are gazing upon one of Virginia's greatest natural resources - soil. Soil is the "backbone" of life. At the base of every building, every highway, and every farm road, airport, and bridge, you will find soil. And just as the human backbone holds our frames in place, soil holds the nutrients and water needed to grow our crops, livestock, and timber. What is Soil? Have you ever stopped and looked at the soil beneath your feet? Have you ever thought of soil as a living, breathing thing? It really is! There are millions of small plants and animals in the soil, and you are walking on their homes (ouch!). Soil is made of both living and dead plants and animals (organic matter), air, water, and mineral particles such as sand, silt, and clay. The diagram below shows the four main "ingredients" of ideal soil. Note that, except for doted-upon home gardens, most Virginia soils do not contain 5% organic matter. Soil features such as thickness, texture, and color can easily be observed and studied. While contemplating these features as you look at a soil sample, ask yourself the following questions:
