DeKalb and Jackson County, Alabama—As the school bells were ringing last week, Southern Torch asked for readers to submit their back to school pictures.

The winner of the contest goes to 8-year old Skyler Johnson who was being escorted to her first day of 3rd grade at Ruhama, by her mom, SRO Sherry Johnson.

We had over 500 submissions and we enjoyed looking at them! We wish everyone a great school year!
