school

As another school year begins, let's revisit what it was like when another Missouri school year ended...back in 1988.

A Border Patrol Agent is being credited for running into Robb Elementary School this week while an 18-year-old, who was armed with AR-15, was shooting kids and teachers.

Does it make me a bad person to admit I would have loved to have access to a smart phone and watch when I was in school? Soon, students at a Missouri high school will get to experience learning like I did as those devices will be banned.

Back to school is a time for new everything. There’s nothing like the fresh feel of unopened pencils, folders, and notebooks. Strut down the halls knowing you’ve got exactly what you need with these school supply kits and more!

It's that time of year again when back-to-school items are hitting the shelves. There's nothing quite like getting a new backpack or lunch box for the new year. Much like a new daily planner, it makes you feel like the world is full of possibilities. Also, it's just nice to carry around a backpack that doesn't have a mysterious stain from 2018 that won't come out no matter what you do. So enjoy this collection of backpacks and lunch boxes to start the new school year off right!

Parents! Be mindful of taking your kids out of school for non-emergencies! It could be an expensive fine, or even jail time.

While some schools in the Tri-States have already started their summer vacation, Quincy Public Schools don't officially begin their summers until Friday. With school not in session for the summer, do Quincy drivers still need to slow down in school zones?

When I went to school in New York State I never started until after Labor Day. When I lived in New York State, I never went to school during the month of August. When I moved out to the Midwest I started going to school during the third week of August.

Schools and school groups are always trying to raise money for a variety of worthy causes. It's pretty common to come across school kids selling anything from frozen foods to yearbook ads to magazine subscriptions. In fact, when you were in school, you probably also participated in fundraisers. What was your favorite?
