First Day of School

This past Thursday was the first day of school for public schools in the East Village, and across the city. Jillery, a store at Avenue B and East 7th Street, had this outside, to entice the groovy parents and groovy kids on their way to the groovy Earth School:

I don't know if the candy was supposed to be free, or if you were meant to pay for it inside, and thus see all of the Back-To-School specials available for purchase.

I like when school is in session; the streets always seem empty during the Summer.
