Back to School

And it was only the first day.

Some started school a few weeks ago and have already felt the pain of the summer's end and accepted it as a reality others are just now feeling those emotions.

Last week kicked off the most wonderful time of year for parents: back-to-school season! Now, it's time to celebrate!

In case you forgot, here are some things to be mindful of as school starts up in the coming week.

All magic valley schools have been back in session for a few months and there's still an issue with cars and school buses. Here's a quick lesson on when you do and don't have to stop for a school bus.

With all this new free time, how should you take advantage of it? Here are some ways to spend your morning and early afternoons with an empty house.

There have been issues in the past where people are not stopping for school buses when their red lights are on

Just like there has been all summer, this weekend will be packed full of events to enjoy the closing days, as well as to help you get prepared before school begins.

There is a one-stop shop this Saturday to get much of the back-to-school shopping done, as well as a great way to support local vendors in the area.

There are some interesting pros and cons to kids having school only 4 days per week.

It isn't even just Twin Falls teachers, it is all teachers. Teachers are sick of saying the same things over and over again. I honestly don't know how they do it. I admire teachers for what they do.

Just a friendly reminder that this year the Twin Falls School District will be providing free breakfast and lunches to all students this year. If you have a child going to school in a Twin Falls School District school, you don't have to worry about packing them a lunch if you don't want to.
