There comes a point every year when most kids between the ages of five and eighteen leave the comfort of their bedrooms and couches and go back to the wonderful, loving, caring environment provided to them by a combination of Federal and State funds. Yep, school's back. Oh, what? We've been back for two weeks? Wait, but, the "Welcome Back Rally" is TODAY!!!! What's going on?
