Bye By good grades.
Im 17 and a senior in high school. Usually when I go driving I leave my Binder (A notebook stuffed with important papers like any other HS student) On the passenger floor, but this time I forgot and had it on the seat next to me. So as I'm cruising down the highway with my windows open doing around 60 mph I see the top of my notebook open.
Whoosh
Bye Bye EVERYTHING
All my tests, quizzes, notes, homework, everything, went right out that window.
Damn

I don't remember writing anything down in highschool, heck I don't even remember going more than one or twice a week. You must be in Grade 11 ? Ah yes Grade 11, the best 3 years of my life

Senior in hs here too. But I dont have to worry about my papers being lost in the Vette cause its stripped in my garage being painted, so I hitch a ride with my mom, talk about a real way to get to school. 
Hopefully late next week I will have the freshly painted Vette.

I never lost anything flying out of the vette, but I have lost papers out of my conv, and many pairs of sunglasses off the dashes of cars out the windows... that always sucks, cause they fly out right before you need them and end up spending two weeks finding another pair that fit good. I always put the stuff behind my seat, never any problem.

Question for you HS guys Do you drive the car to school and park it there for the day? Reason I ask is because if you were to do that around any city in CT it would be gone by break time!

I drive to school and park it there. I always park by my friends with nice cars so I am not worried about them messing with it. My school is also like a prison so we have surveillance cameras on the outside watching the parking lot. People have been caught breaking into cars, doing burnouts, and I have been caught skipping, so I know they work.

I drive my car and park it at my school. I live in a vacation oriented area (Long Beach Island) and it isn't as bad as you some places. Not to mention I just had a brand new Viper alarm system installed and it is so sensitive that it prety much goes off when a leaf lands on my windshield. No ones stealing that thing.
