Sandy Hook Students Return To School

Sandy Hook Students Return To School

Posted: Updated:
MONROE, Conn. -

Students and teachers from Sandy Hook Elementary return to class Thursday for the first time since last month's shooting rampage that left 26 people dead.

They will finish out the school year in what had been a vacant middle school.

Furniture, desks and other school supplies were all moved into the new school.

The school has been re-named Sandy Hook, and school officials say their goal is to ease the students back into their classroom routines.

At the nearby firehouse, where so many parents found out their child had died, 26 bronze stars now line the roof in memory of the victims.

Fox News reporter Robert Moses joined "Good Day" live Thursday morning from Monroe, Conn., with more details on how that community is welcoming the returning students.

    It was a gloomy Sunday as the whole area remain socked in with low clouds & fog, drizzle and scattered showers.

    The weather remains unsettled through most of the work week. The difference is that it will really warm up -- temperatures soar into the 80s by Tuesday.  That mild and humid air mass will fuel afternoon thunderstorms.

    By Thursday a cold front moves by bringing more rain.  It will also bring drier and cooler weather by Friday as we finally clear out.
