Classes began Aug. 17 for all Kenai Peninsula Borough School District schools. Even with steady rain, Paul Banks Elementary School and Homer High School principals Jerry Stapleton and Doug Waclawski welcomed students back to campus and encouraged them to make the best of the upcoming year.
Waclawski said he is excited to see how the students will succeed this year.
“Just like every year, I want to see what this group of students will do. They’ll do some fabulous things, so it’ll be interesting to see.”
Here are some of Homer News’ favorite back to school photos from the first day of class.
