It may be hard to believe, but it’s already August! That means summer is nearly over, and school is about to be back in session. Some kiddos will be back in class in just a couple of weeks, while others aren’t starting again until September.
Wondering where your school fits in the schedule? Read on for school start dates in South Central PA. (Note: some schools have multiple start dates per grade, so make sure to verify with your individual school.)
