Despite the soggy conditions, students were all smiles as they entered the buildings. With their backpacks filled to the brim, the kindergartners made their way into their classroom thanks to the guidance of the teachers and support staff, who helped them ease into their new environments.

Sixth and ninth grade students toured their buildings and received their schedules prior to the first day to make their first day transition a bit easier. Students across the district were eager to reconnect with their classmates and settle in for a productive year ahead.
