"This morning I was driving to skool with my dad ...."

First, pay more attention in SCHOOL, particularly English and Spelling.

Second. Driving to school, with your dad? As in I have a learner's permit and need a parent in the car to drive? Hot Flash for you -- the collision is DAD's Fault. He is the responsible adult and should have corrected your driving before the accident.

"Hey, Mom? Dad screwed up and neglected to tell me how to drive in the slick and *WE* crashed your car."
 
This morning I was driving to skool with my dad n the roads were very icy. The car pulled off the road and into the woods where a tree stopped it. I immediatly started crying wondering how am i going to tell my mom? She is going to kill me. Luckily my art teacher came w his truck and pulled us out. The hood is very dented and the bumper is falling off. It is a 2006 Chevy white Impala, and we dont have the $ to fix it rite now. Any advice would be great.

Just be honest about what happened. It is not as if the accident was your fault. Your Father can also attest to what happened since he was with you. The worst thing you can do in a situation like this is to cover it up or lie about what happened. Your Mother will appreciate the fact that you had enough honesty and integrity to tell her the truth. I know that you are afraid she will be upset with you, but what is most important is your own health. Sure the automobile was damaged, but you can replace an automobile but you can't replace a life. Go to your Mother, explain what happened and tell her that the icy roads caused your accident. If you be upfront about this I'm sure she will understand. Most good parents are more concerned about their child's life rather than the damage of a vehicle. Its only when you try to hide it that you get into more trouble.
 
"Mom, I wrecked your car"

Was that hard?

If you think it was, trying to think of a story or hiding the truth will be a million times harder. Telling her exactly what you did will make her upset, but it will not create any long-term damage to your mother/child relationship. Not telling her the truth will only create more problems than a wrecked Impala.
