Back to School

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.

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.

The Twin Falls School District shared information about the protocols that will be underway during the 2021-222 school year. Come August, when students head back to school, this is how things are going to look.

On Tuesday, August 18th, Servpro and PSI are sponsoring a school supply and non perishable snack drive for CASA.

This is the 11th year that law officers and other employees of the Twin Falls County Sheriff’s Office participated in “Shop with a Cop,” an annual event that help students get ready for the new school year.

South Central Public Health District is encouraging parents to have their children immunized now to avoid the back-to-school rush.

The last round of closings, announced this past January, totaled 100.

Schools in the Magic Valley don't follow the same schedule. Each school or school district has their own yearly calendar that their students follow.

It's official. Every school in the Magic Valley is back in session. Twin Falls School District has been in session for almost 3 weeks while Xaviar Charter School and Filer School District are just beginning.

UPDATE, Monday August 29th - The Twin Falls School District has just released the following statement. The middle school leadership teams are also exploring the idea of letting students bring clear backpacks to help with carrying supplies and alleviating security concerns.
