    My first stop on the hunt for government offices and or buildings in Snyder is the Scurry County Courthouse. I had no problem finding this building due to how it's located in the center of town and all the main roads lead to the "square" where the Courthouse is located. The buildings address is 1806 25th street.

    Sitting at the bus stop, feeling the cool concrete beneath his feet, and the chipped, worn down bench, Goober waited anxiously for the bus. Sure, he felt bad leaving Jerry behind, but it would’ve felt worse to stay at a place as evil as Trinity. The bus pulled up, and Goober stepped on the bus.

Everyone has…

    away. The only problem that I have to face was bus’ schedule and the crowded bus stop, which made most of the students uncomfortable once we all stepped inside the bus. Being on a crowded bus and having to deal with it for almost three years, made me feel lazy to go to school. It was all luck and a huge boost when my dad bought a car and started dropping me off to school. I didn’t have to deal with busy bus’…

    many students will not be able to get to or leave school as easily as before. Most adults go to work around the same time as students go to school, so if school started later, students would not have rides to school and would either have to take the bus or walk. These buses would cost a lot of money for schools. That money could be used to improve the school rather than used for school buses. It would also be a lot…

    school bus with seat belts would be between $7,346 and $10,296, the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration estimated at a public meeting last year” (Howard 1). There are two ways of including seat belts, either retrofitting the current vehicles or producing a new one.
