South Dakota’s First Day Of School For Sioux Empire Area
The words that most students hate to hear, and most parents can't wait to hear: "The first day of school will soon be here."
When you drive around town there are signs that the new school year is about to begin. Early morning marching band practices, football practice, and teacher in-service, just to name a few.
I'm sure you'll agree that the summer break for school kids keeps getting shorter and shorter. Sports camps come into play, and summer classes and early season activities are all cutting into that three-month vacation window.
As you begin your back-to-school shopping ask yourself, "How many days until the first day of school?"
