BLAKELY, Pa. Snow on the ground is not a normal sight for the first day of school.
But even though it is February and students have technically been taking classes online for months, the first-day jitters are still very real here at Valley View Elementary School. Last night, I know speaking to teachers and even for the kids, it was hard getting to sleep because you were so excited. It is like the first day of school all over, said Valley View Elementary School Principal Maria Kishel.
