Students aren't the only ones who have to prepare for the first day of
school.
The custodian turns on the lights and sweeps the hallways. Is it time
for school? Not yet! The cafeteria workers wash tables and stack lunch
trays. Is it time for school? Not yet! Teachers unpack supplies and
organize their classrooms. Is it time for school? Almost! The students
are on their way, on foot, on bicycles, and in cars and buses. Welcome,
everyone!
