MIAMI (CBSMiami) – A day of firsts, some fun, and free stuff awaited students at the Paul Laurence Dunbar K-8 Center in Overtown when they returned for the start of the new school year.

But not all were seasoned pros.

“Are you excited to back to school,” Bianca Peters asked one youngster.

“Yes, because it’s my first day of school,” he replied.

“Yeah, congratulations on your first day,” Peters said, giving him a high five.

Some parents who dropped their kids off at school were happy to see them back in the classroom and appreciated the new security measures, like limited points of entry and an armed officer on campus.
