Scotty McCreery Able to Shed Police Escort After First Few Days of School
Scotty McCreery says he was afraid on his first day of school, his first day of his senior year of high school that is. The ‘American Idol’ winner chose to return to Garner High School, hoping that he’d be treated like any other kid. The plan worked, after a few tenuous days.

The 19-year-old from Sunrise has done that and more, demonstrating to all of America and a tough panel of judges that she is special.
