So the Midview High School curse is back. Since my sister was in high school-she graduated in 1992, at least one kid-usually a senior-died while they were in high school. My class-2003-was the last one to lose someone. This tragedy happened every single year for 11 years.
For the first time since 2003, two students died in a fatal car accident yesterday right after school-actually less than a mile away from school. Here's the story...

The police officers say it is the worst accident they have seen...
What's sad is that the kid had speeding tickets and the parents still let him drive. Now I'm not blaming the parents for their son being dead and driving the way he did but if I would have gotten ONE ticket, my parents would have made me ride the bus to school and taken my keys away.
Its very sad and I know that those students are going through today at school. I lost 2 very close friends in high school and 3 more since I graduated 5 years ago. It's hard and doesn't get easier....
Since so many teenagers drive this way, I really feel like the driving age should be raised to 18. I think 16 is WAAAY to young. My dad thinks it gives them too much freedom and I agree.
May the boys RIP
OH and I was friends with the driver's brother. We had a mutual friend die in a car accident in high school....
