MAPLEWOOD, NJ — Just as so many were settling into their summer routine, a new school year has crept up in Maplewood this week. As students head into the 2019-2020 school year, Patch invites you to get back into the spirit of a new school year by submitting photos from your child’s first days of school to possibly be included in a Back to School gallery.
Readers are encouraged to submit photos that include happy, funny, sweet, unfazed, anxious, excited (or not) moments captured at the bus stop, outside of their new classroom, with school friends or in other school-related settings. You can also send us a throwback photo from your first day.
Feel free to also tell us your child’s favorite part of school, or what they’re most looking forward to this new school year.
Want to be included in this gallery? Send your pictures to russ.crespolini@patch.com. By submitting a photo, you’re giving Patch permission to publish it for this feature.
