Grayson High School senior Kymari Bennett said the hands on experience he had during his automotive class at Maxwell High School this week is crucial for him to achieve his goal of being a professional mechanic.

He and his classmates come to Maxwell High School of Technology in Lawrenceville every day to work in the garage and tinker with the clunkers that are parked behind the school. For three days this week, however, Bennett and his classmates learned about some of the intuitive digital features in new Mercedes-Benz GLA-Class and E-Class vehicles, cars with features likely to become more standard in the future.
