Starting her first day of grade one minus her two front teeth! — Amy Ellick

First day at preschool! — Sacha Coutu from Sarnia, Ontario

First day of primary school. — Colleen Noseworthy from Halifax, NS

Love this photo of their first days of grade six, three and preschool! — Beth Francois

My daughter, Lexi started grade nine and my son, Jack, started grade four. He wasn't happy about the traditional back-to-school picture being taken this year. — Tannis Nikkel

Jennifer Brown's son.

I make our son hold up his fingers to show the grade he's going into. To which he replies, "really?" with his 11-year-old attitude.

Mackenzie's first day of grade one. — Katherine Caine-Pollock

My daughter Meagan, grade four. My big girl!! — Avelina Carnegie from Toronto, Ontario
