Students in the Fairfield-Suisun School District poured into classrooms Monday at the elementary, middle and high schools.

There were some tears and a lots of cheers. Those traveling the surface streets in Fairfield and Suisun City noticed an increase in traffic from about 7:30 to 9 a.m.

Patience was the key to those seeking parking spaces and help at the school office as lines stretched out the door.

More than 950 sixth-, seventh- and eighth-graders entered under an arch of black and yellow balloons at Grange Middle School. Waiting for them were teachers with pompoms, handmade signs and lots of cheering.
