The final days of summer are here for families across Natrona County as students prepare to return to school on Monday, August 31, 2026, marking the beginning of the 2026–2027 school year for Natrona County School District students.

With the first day approaching, families have been taking care of the details that come with starting a new school year. The district has provided information covering school activities, transportation, required forms, and meal assistance to help students and families prepare.

Schools Welcome Families Back

Several schools across Natrona County have been preparing for the return of students through Back-to-School Nights and other activities designed to help families get ready.

According to the Natrona County School District, Back-to-School Nights give families opportunities to meet teachers and school staff, reconnect with classmates, complete paperwork, and become familiar with their child's school before classes begin.

Because schedules vary by school, families are encouraged to check with their child's school for specific information about back-to-school activities and schedules.
