With Rain Boots on and Umbrellas in Hand, Attleboro Students Head Back to School

Willett Elementary students can hop on the bus, walk or get a ride to get to school.

It's back to school for Attleboro students today, and it was a rainy start. For some students it required being at the bus stop at 7:45 a.m. for a school day that begins at 8:50 a.m.

While many parents chose to drive their children rather than wait for the bus on the first day of school, others took to the pavement and walked in the drizzle. And then there were children who could not wait to get on the bus and enjoy the time with their friends on the way to school.

For the bus drivers it is an opportunity to see some familiar faces, Lori Ladouceur has been driving a bus in Attleboro for seven years. It was a rainy start, but a successful one as the new school year begins.
