On this West Virginia Morning, a new school year is in full swing in West Virginia. But Chris Schulz reports that one group of students in Morgantown has a unique concern this year: needing a place in school to pray together.
Meanwhile, another interim session of the West Virginia Legislature is underway at the state capitol. Teachers, child care providers, legislators and advocates gathered in Charleston Sunday to call on Gov. Jim Justice and lawmakers to address a child care crisis in the state. Briana Heaney attended the rally and has the story.
Plus, recreation league basketball can bring joy to small communities. Evan Ellison and Abram Whitt, students at the Fayette Institute of Technology, tell us about the Mount Hope Basketball League in Raleigh County.
