RKYHS Speaker Advocates For Safe Driving

Rae Kushner Yeshiva High School students were fortunate to hear an eye-opening talk last week from Jacy Good. At 23, Jacy Good was at the top of the world. On the day she graduated from college, she and her family celebrated her achievement—until their joyous day was cut short by a car accident caused by a young man on his cell phone.
