Photos: Back-to-School Snapshots

It's the first day of the 2011-12 school year at Lake Forest's public schools.

It might still feel like summer as the temperatures reach the mid-90s in Lake Forest today, but the first day of school for students in the Saddleback Valley Unified School District has arrived nonetheless.

Whether you took a few quick shots of your child stepping onto the bus or posing outside of your front door with a new backpack, we'd love to feature your images on Lake Forest Patch.
