Back to school, for kids it means the end of a Summer break. For parents it means dropping a boat load of money on new school supplies and clothes. Today is your day to shop thanks to the state's sales tax holiday. At least you're getting a bit of break from big brother.

When does school start for your kids? Naturally each parish in the area runs on a different time table and schedule and that can make it confusing to explain on the radio. That is why we have these links set up for you that take you directly the site of the schools in your parish. Private and parochial schools follow similar schedules to many of the public school systems but not necessarily.
