Students from District 181 schools across the village returned to their classrooms Tuesday. New clothes, new back packs and fresh haircuts were quite evident as students gathered outside The Lane School before the opening bell sent them inside with their teachers in the lead. Hinsdale Central students returned last week. While summer seems to have ended early for District 181, the last day for the 2024-25 year is just around the corner on May 30.
