Carlinville schools opened August 17


Buses. Check. Backpacks. Check. New clothes and school supplies. Check. Children and parents saying teary good-byes as kids start school. Priceless.

School is officially back in session as Carlinville schools started with a half day Aug. 17. Normally, the school day goes from 8 a.m. to 3 p.m. Buses begin dropping students off shortly after 7:30 a.m.

Nikki England of Carlinville dropped two of her three children off at the Primary School Aug. 17 for the first day of the 2010-2011 school year. Her oldest son, Rowdy, is entering third grade while middle child, Stormy, began first grade. Her youngest daughter, Willow, is in preschool. “It’s hard to leave my kids,” England said after leaving Rowdy and Stormy in the gymnasium with their teachers. “The separation is the hardest thing, knowing they’re in someone else’s care.”


Carlinville Primary School students Klair Costello, Lillie Reels, Gracie Reels, Rory Drew and Jozie Costello arrive for the first day of school after getting dropped off from Bus No. 4 Aug. 17.
