Roseman High School hosts fifth annual Night at the Museum event

Roseman High School is set to host its fifth annual Night at the Museum event tonight, showcasing academic excellence in U.S. history. The event, themed "Triumph Over Tragedy," begins at 5 PM on campus and promises an engaging experience for attendees. Coach Johnson expressed optimism about the event, highlighting the leadership of Miss Tanksley in organizing this year's activities. The event will also feature presentations on the triumphs and tragedies of rock and roll, adding a musical element to the evening.

In a poignant moment, the school community is also reflecting on the tragic loss of former junior high teacher Mr. Stevenson, who died in 2016 due to a distracted driving incident. His family is using this tragedy to raise awareness about the dangers of distracted driving. Anthony Pena, a student, has created a public service announcement (PSA) at the request of Mrs. Stevenson to share their message. The PSA emphasizes the serious consequences of distracted driving, noting that one in four accidents is caused by this behavior.

The video production class has submitted the PSA to the Ad Council, where it could potentially be broadcast nationwide if selected. This initiative not only honors Mr. Stevenson’s memory but also aims to educate drivers about the impact of their actions on families and communities. The school community is encouraged to support both the Night at the Museum event and the important message behind the PSA, reinforcing the significance of awareness and education in preventing future tragedies.
