Sandy Hook Students Return to School at Heavily Guarded Facility

Nearby former middle school renovated for use

Buses carrying Sandy Hook Elementary School students rolled into a former middle school campus here, and classes resumed Thursday morning for the first time since a gunman killed 20 children and six adults at the Sandy Hook school in nearby Newtown.

Classes are being held in the former Chalk Hill Middle School, which closed in 2010 but was renovated to accommodate the displaced Sandy Hook students. The school has been renamed Sandy Hook Elementary School.
