Last week during the “No Empty Chair” campaign school Resource Officers (SROs) from Ramapo and Suffern High Schools engaged with students to discuss the serious risks of underage drinking, distracted driving, and impaired driving. A key part of the program was the use of Fatal Vision goggles, which allowed students to experience how impairment affects coordination and decision-making. This hands-on demonstration delivered a powerful and eye-opening message about the consequences of unsafe driving.

We extend our heartfelt thanks to the officers for their continued dedication to educating and protecting our youth.

As Memorial Day weekend and prom/graduation season approach, our SROs are working proactively to help students understand the real-life consequences of dangerous driving decisions.

Using Fatal Vision Goggles, students got a powerful, hands-on experience showing how alcohol and drug impairment can affect vision, balance, and reaction time—all without ever getting behind the wheel. The experience served as a vivid reminder that just one poor decision can lead to life-altering consequences.

We’re incredibly proud of our students for taking this lesson seriously and grateful to our SROs for their ongoing dedication to keeping our community safe.
