A student enters the Jamestown High School, where seniors painted names and back to school messages for new and returning students.
JAMESTOWN, N.D. (NewsDakota.com) – More than 770 new and returning students made their way to the Jamestown High School for their first day back.
Senior Will Nelson is the Student Body President and talked about the senior tradition of creating chalk messages for the students on the first day.
Nelson says one of the first things the student council is working on is homecoming, which is a little earlier this year.
He added there’s always a lot of excitement when it comes to ending summer and getting back into the school routine.
Another tradition is Principal Adam Gehlhar welcoming students back with fist bumps and first day well wishes.
Principal Gehlhar added they’re looking forward to the school year and are continuing to hire as they deal with teaching shortages.
Below are some sights from back to school at the Jamestown High School:
