63,000 Students Head Back To School In East Valley Districts

Crossing guards and school zone signs will be out in the East Valley this week as several districts return from summer break.

Sixty-three thousand students will head to school in the Chandler, Higley and Queen Creek unified school districts.

Most Valley schools start in August. For the rest of the country, school typically starts after Labor Day.
