Indian Lake High School seniors pour pancakes for their peers in the student parking lot Wednesday morning on the district’s first day of the 2021-22 school year. This is the fifth year for the breakfast tradition. At the middle school, students were figuring out their locker situations and elementary students posed for first day pictures and giving hugs to teachers they haven’t seen all summer. Some staff and students are wearing masks and some are not, district officials said. Kindergarten students with the last names A-K will begin school today, while the end of the alphabet will come Friday. (INDIAN LAKE SCHOOLS PHOTO)
