Tomorrow is the first day of school for my youngest son, who is a senior in high school. So I'm organizing this listicle around new beginnings. But first days of school don't always mean an apple-cheeked student with a fresh box of crayons and a heart bursting with enthusiasm. The first day of school brings a wide range of emotions, depending on where you are in life. Whether you are a little kid, or a middle schooler, a straight-A student or a student who struggles academically, a girl or a boy, a parent with a last child starting or a first child starting or no child starting, it's a loaded day. Here are my picks from around the web for the emotional roller coaster that is the first day of school.
