Back to School

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.

The Twin Falls School District made the announcement that school will start back up on August 16th and this year they are offering counseling for students. The school district said they are aiming to address student mental health and support families in the community.

JEROME, Idaho (News Release) – Each year, the employees of St. Luke’s in Jerome host a campaign to raise funds to buy school supplies for children in need.

Ten years ago you could probably buy your children's school supplies for under $40. If you use coupons and shop at 3 or 4 stores you might be able to buy your children's school supplies for under $40 this year. However, most Twin Falls parents report spending between $60 to $100 per child this year on school supplies.

All magic valley schools are now back in session.  Here's a quick lesson on when you do and don't have to stop for a school bus.

The first few weeks of school can be rough. The days are long, your kids don't want to go to bed before 9pm, and you don't want to wake them up at 6:30am. This begs the question: Is it just hard for the kids to wake up for the first few weeks, or does school start too early?

With Twin Falls schools starting earlier this year, the first day of school is going to be here before you know it. If you want to avoid sell outs, it's time to get school supply shopping.

Hundreds of Magic Valley children struggle with being able to afford essential school supplies. But you can help! We're trading Big Macs for backpacks at McCash for Kids 2015!
