Diana Maria Nolan described her daughter’s mixed emotions: 'She started seventh grade and is sad the summer is over. But I’m happy that she went back... it gives something to do during the day with purpose.'
NYC mom Gessica DiPaolo noted her daughter was thrilled to start at a new school: 'My fourth grader started at Catholic school for the first time today... she was stoked to see all her friends.'
