A young kindergartner is excited for the new year

Photo feature by Marie Boulton

Wednesday, Aug. 23, was the first day of school in Montezuma – with the heat index soaring to over 110 degrees!

The school is air conditioned now, so no problem, right?

Teacher Marie Boulton (who is our photographer) wanted to do this photo feature about the first day, which was to include kids getting off the bus.

“But it was so humid I couldn’t take pictures of kids getting off the buses and coming in. The lens would fog over!” she said.  Marie got other shots, though, and here they are:

Many elementary staff members wore shirts that said: Be Brave, Be Kind, Be Happy, Be YOU.
