I walk through the house, my eyes laser-focused on my foe. I mentally prepared myself for what I was about to do. It feels like a lifetime ago when I became a crusader, seeking a surrounding clear and clean of vermin.

As summer vacation comes to a close, it’s almost that time of year when parents rush to the stores for supplies and teachers dress up their classrooms to welcome back fresh-faced students.

While donations of supplies have poured in, organizers of Saturday’s Tenth Annual Polk County Back to School Extravaganza say more are always needed.

A Missouri State University student from Halfway was awarded for her success at the 2023 Future Business Leaders of America (FBLA) Collegiate National Leadership Conference in Atlanta, Georgia, on June 22-25.

Registration for all Humansville R-IV students will take place Aug. 9 through Aug.11, from 7:30 a.m. to noon and 1:00 p.m. to 3:30 p.m. Registration packets will be available for parent pick up starting Tuesday, Aug. 8.

Sullivan Bank in Pleasant Hope will be doing a school supply drive for the Pleasant Hope School District.
