back to school

Iowa's annual tax-free weekend is this Friday & Saturday! Get the details here.

Get a head start on school supply shopping and have a blast with the family before summer ends.

As school starts all over Iowa, we put staff members to the test to see if they could remember the scents of their youth.

Summer vacation is officially over. This past weekend was the final weekend of freedom for kids everywhere who are getting ready to head back to school this week.

If your family is anything like mine, you still have some back to school shopping to do. The next two days could be the perfect time to wrap it up!

A family event in downtown Cedar Rapids will be providing school supplies for area kids, but you'd better get your name in now to be sure you're among the 500!

I was half joking the other week when I mentioned how you know kids are back in school when they start getting sick, making reference to what they call the "back-to-school plague."  However, a new virus is spreading quickly, now impacting Iowa, and this is no laughing matter.
