WOODWAY, Texas — Midway High schoolers participated in a drinking/drunk driving program called Shattered Dreams in partnership with local emergency personnel Wednesday, according to the Woodway Public Safety Department's Facebook.

The crash will be a full-scale event consisting of multiple emergency vehicles, from Hewitt and Woodway Police and Fire Departments, as well as ambulances and a medical helicopter, as stated by the post.
