At River Oaks Elementary, teachers and students were trying to go on a normal day. Then a parent called with the news that Leah Henry had been found. Celebration broke out among Leah's classmates and friends.
Fifth graders are still young enough to believe in happy endings.
This time they were right. The students at River Oaks Elementary are happy. They had all been wearing yellow ribbons for Leah. And the excitement was all the greater because of the emotion of the last few days. It wasn't just children who were celebrating.
