Most kids go back to school this week.  And while they're dreading the homework, they're looking forward to the new year.

Bethel, Blachly and Coos Bay start Tuesday.  Springfield, Eugene 4J, South Lane and Corvallis start up on Wednesday.

KEZI caught up with a few students, and a teacher, to find out what they're most excited about.
