If you had to write a play about your life, would it be boring? Would it be filled with wild characters or ordinary people?  Unfortunately, Michelle’s life has been anything but interesting. Thus begins this year’s Junior/Senior Play.  

Students must be 14-and-a-half-years-old by the end of the school year in order to take the class.

  “Crank it to the right. Make sure your tires are at the edge,” Terry High School drivers education instructor Casey Schladweiler said to Freshman driver Lacey Waters during a recent lesson. As he continued to give point-by-point instructions, Waters completed a three-point turn.
