Back To School

The 2022-2023 school year is almost here! We want to help make sure your students are ready for class. KELOLAND News has compiled the latest education headlines along with supply lists for dozens of school districts in the area.

Scroll down to see our staff when they were in the classroom! Share photos of your children as they start the new school year; send the pictures to ushare@keloland.com and we’ll use them to create a back to school gallery.
