Everyone is ready for classes to resume in District 8 and this school year will feature a few things to help parents, teachers and students.

District 8 Superintendent Susan Tipper tells CHSJ News they are adding new busing software called "Versatrans" that will allow parent's a chance to keep track of their child's bus number, route and time online.

Autism Centres are also new this year and will be located East,West and Central. Students with their parent's permission travel to the centres with their teacher's assistant and learn from an autism trained teacher how they can help children learn.
