About this Article

Sandy Hook students settled in at their old, familiar desks but in a different school in a different town Thursday. Less than a month after the tragic Connecticut school shootings, students were met by a large police presence outside the new school in a neighboring town, where a middle school was overhauled and renamed for them.
