For high schoolers that are just getting their licence and have not been driving for very long‚ it is not good if they drive to school

January 2013 Just Your Average Snow Day In grade school‚ snow days were the absolute best part of the winter months and living in Missouri promised at least a few per year. One particular day in third grade stands out in my mind as the best snow day of all.
