Addiction hit my family hard before I was even born. In November of 1998 my grandfather went missing. Police and search teams searched for my grandfather for months and found no leads. It has been 18 years and my grandfather still has not been found. I really wish I was able to meet my grandfather and at least figure out what happened to him.

"High School" High school is a place where young teens learn to become mature and responsible. It is a place where students get trained to take on bigger challenges in life. Obstacles such as college. From my own personal experiences‚ high school didn’t seem that way. Students were more concerned about getting a passing grade then about what they were taught.
