NAPERVILLE, Illinois (WBBM) With most high school sports on pause, one Naperville North teacher who has a background in racing found a great way to keep kids busy.
As CBS 2’s Matt Zahn reported Thursday night, the teacher, Gregory Ditch, got some help from a NASCAR team.
A group of about 30 students at Naperville North High School were recently found building a race car, socially distanced in small groups, and having a great time doing it.
