As summer comes to a close, it's about that time for kids to be back in school. When is the first day of school for the Yakima school district? It might be sooner than you think!

The first day of school for the Yakima School District is Wednesday, August 26, 2015.

Why does it start on a Wednesday? I'm not exactly sure, myself. When I was growing up, it was always the day after Labor Day.

Either way, now you know so, hopefully, you'll be a little more prepared than last year.
