It’s nearly time for school to start in districts across Marion County. In Knoxville, Northstar Elementary Principal John Keitges says that teachers have been in-and-out of the building to prep their classroom. He adds they’ll spend part of this week working in groups to discuss plans and ideas for the upcoming year. Twin Cedars is the first to open school, starting this Thursday. Knoxville and Pleasantville start up next Monday, and Melcher-Dallas starts up on the 21st.
