PHOTOS: Teachers Prepare for First Day

A photo essay captures Spruce Elementary School teachers putting the finishing touches on their preparations for a new school year.

Tomorrow, children will rush these hallways, and the noise, mess and happy chaos of a new school year will begin.

But today, teachers had a semblance of calm as they made their final preparations before school begins Wednesday morning. In these photos, James Tensuan captured teachers cleaning their classrooms, holding final meetings and putting the finishing touches on their displays.

Thanks to Principal Rebecca Vyduna and all the Spruce teachers and staff for allowing us a peek into all the promise and anticipation of a new school year.
