EAST ALTON, Ill. – It is a big back-to-school day Wednesday morning for many Illinois districts in the area.

Back to school pretty much started on Monday of this week. That’s when some districts, including East St. Louis, went back to class. East Alton is one of at least a dozen Illinois schools, and next week many Missouri districts in our area start.
