back to school

Mandan Public School's Orientation schedule

It's back to school for most Bismarck-Mandan schools with most classes starting Thursday. (Aug 25) It's time to review safety tips for packing a school lunch or after school snack for students.

Parents, it's time to dig deep into your pockets for back to school. With the school years starting for many this week in Bismarck-Mandan, the projected costs have increased more than 30%.

It's back to school for children across the area. School bells are ringing, and the kids are ready to wake up early and hit the books.

The start of the school day in North Dakota is being applauded by the American Academy of Pediatrics, stating the school bell starting the day should not ring before 8:30 AM.

School starts in Bismarck-Mandan on August 27, which means it's time for the flurry of preparatory activity and anxiety that inevitably comes with the beginning of each new grade.

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.
