NEW ROCHELLE, N.Y. -- Ursuline School seniors Catherine Carty and Jacqueline Winters enjoyed their last first day back at school Thursday.
The two seniors, who have been at the sixth through 12th grade school since sixth grade, were just two of many students from Ursuline and Salesian High School to begin the 2011-2012 school year Thursday.
I was so excited, said Carty who also serves as Ursulines co-senior class president with Winters. Ive been waiting.
Its nice to be almost done knowing that Ive made it this far, she said. I felt like we were ready as class presidents to help with it.
It was very exciting, said Winters, who experienced a first with three new teachers. That doesnt happen too often, Winters said. You get a new perspective on different things.
