Drill Persuasive Speech
In this day and age nobody goes without a phone. Then you can imagine how much it sucks to not have your phone for 3 days straight. Just because of stupid people. It might not of been the same person, it could have been three different people. One day you're evacuating the school, the next day schools come to you and then you evacuate, and the next you evacuate again.

It was three quarters of the way through the school year when the first evacuation happened. It was 9:31 A.M. when we got the announcement, we are going to evacuate this is a drill. We all thought at first that it was a drill. They said we were going to the high school. That's when we kind of got suspicious. If this was a drill why were they driving all the way
