Testifying on Bike Helmet Bill

Centreville High School seniors Texas Williams, Hanna Lee, Jessie Dagata and Matt Darling traveled to Richmond along with their Advanced Placement U.S. and Comparative Government teacher, Terri Ritchey, to argue before the Senate Subcommittee about a bill requiring anyone under the age of 14 to wear a bike helmet. The Brain Trauma Association and EMT Association also spoke in favor of the bill, which was written and researched by the students. The bill was submitted on the students' behalf by state Sen. George Barker, above with the four CVHS students.
