Schools begin new year

Schools around the county are back in session. Above, Grove Hill Elementary kindergarten teacher Brenda Byrd talks with students Drew Dunegan, left, and Destiny Brown, right. Coffeeville Elementary kindergarten teacher Lisa Moss, right photo, assists student Dylan Phillips with building blocks on the first day of school there last Thursday. For the first time since the 1970s, elementary and high school students are going to school in the same building, Coffeeville High. The elementary and high schools were consolidated this year because of a low student population. Motorists are reminded to be watchful every morning and afternoon for school buses loaded with youngsters.
