The Disease of Being Busy
Every 15 Minutes
A local high school presented the Every 15 Minutes program to the student population. Freshman and sophomores attended an assembly that focused on texting and driving. The juniors and seniors attended a live crash simulation, followed by a memorial service the next day.

Please know that the images are graphic and disturbing in some cases.
