ULVADE, TX. (CNN) - Students in Uvalde, Texas returned to the classrooms Tuesday but unlike most places in the country, it was not a joyous first day back to school.

Students and staff are still grieving after a deadly shooting at Robb Elementary that happened back in May.

To help kids cope with their stress and anxiety, therapy dogs also headed to the classrooms.

It was a small gesture to help them feel more comfortable and at ease on a day that might be scary for some.
