It's been a wonderful first week. On Monday, 111 schools opened their doors to welcome more than 47,000 students-- the highest enrollment for the first day of school in five years. In addition, we hired 300 new teachers, and dozens of new guidance counselors, social workers, and librarians to support our students. Take a look at some snapshots from the week!
