On a positive note, a school in our area has taken action to help teach etiquette to students.  Minersville Junior/Senior High School has an extracurricular group known as the "gentlemen's group."  Newswatch 16's Ryan Leckey popped into the school in Schuylkill County to learn about the program for young men.  The school's "good manners gurus" also shared some insight on dress codes for Spring/Summer weddings such as festive vs. casual attire.
