back to school

Eek! Class begins August 22 at School District 2. You've got 30 days to wrap up your summer fun. Here are some top picks for kids in Billings.

I've been researching some back-up plans in case we decide to not participate in the schools online learning and here are a few options (and costs) that I found.

Here comes the old man rant, so get ready.  Yes, it has been 40 years since I graduated from high school.  I also raised five kids and know what they need to go to school.  My oldest daughter is now a third grade teacher.  Here goes the rant...

In the span of a week we've had record hi temps, fires, rain and now fog.

Why are they taking my picture?  How come I'm not home playing with my bike?  What is my dog Buddy going to do all day without me?  Why did mom button my shirt all the way to the top?!!  Does Grandpa know I'm being held hostage in the brick building...

This is a picture of my youngest daughter 7 years ago after graduating from Preschool.  This year she turns 13 and will enter the 7th grade.  It's back to school time.  Oh, I know, it's about a month away, but it got me thinking to back when I was a kid...

If the sight of all those school supplies filling the aisles of Billings retail stores has you in a panic, it's understandable. Parents with three children in elementary, middle and high school can expect to pay as much as $3,000 for school supplies and extracurricular activities for the 2015-2016 school year, according to the Huntington Bank Backpack Index released Wednesday.

The 'X-mas Jammies' family is back, and this time they're celebrating what every parent is looking forward to this time of summer: the beginning of the school year.

It's about that time! The kids will be headed back to school for another year of learning. To get you in the Back to School Spirit, we have some great businesses giving away some great prizes in our Back to School Showcase.
