Students return to classrooms for 2018-2019 academic year

Please hold in prayer the thousands of children across the Diocese of Trenton’s four counties who embarked on the 2018-2019 academic year, the week of Sept. 4.

Trenton Monitor photographers were on hand to capture the excitement and joy felt by students, educators and parents on their first days back to school. View hundreds of photos, including those from the following schools, on the Monitor’s galleries page, which will be updated as more photos become available:

• St. James School, Red Bank
