  • The Centers for Disease Control is evaluating “test-to-stay” as a way to keep students in class, even if they come in contact with someone who tests positive.

  • Pumpkin farmers in the Midwest say they’ve had a really good harvest this year, and that consumers should have plenty to choose from.

In today’s deep dive, we’ll learn how, and why, a mummy came to a high school in Naperville back in the 1940s.
