first day of school

As school gets back in session for many districts around Illinois and the Chicago area, social media feeds have lit up with smiling first-day-of-school photos.

The suburban Chicago sheriff’s office noted five things not to include when posting...

Monday marked a fresh start for children who lost their dads, fallen Chicago police officers, nearly two years ago. The children walked into an award-winning private school while being saluted and supported by the Chicago Police Department. NBC 5’s Kye Martin reports.

Monday marked the first day of school at Evanston Township High School, but classes weren’t held behind the walls of District 202’s red brick building. For right now, students’ home are their classrooms. NBC 5’s Christian Farr reports.
