3 weeks until school starts!

The start of the new school year is on the final countdown...3 weeks from today our students will be in their new classrooms!  

Begin to gather the necessary school supplies.  Many of the retail stores have Elementary School supply lists available, by grade.  Middle and High School students may need to wait for the first day of school or you may try to access a teacher's website to look for the requested supplies.  We do recommend that you pick up some basics now though - like paper, pens, pencils, composition books, 3-prong folders, etc.

NOTE:  If you can pick up a few extra supplies to donate to children in need that would be amazing!  It will give your child a great feeling to help children who have to struggle!

And we will be reiterating this point over the next few weeks about getting back into some semblance of a school schedule.  Summer break is awesome, but it might be a good idea to insert some reading time where a good homework schedule will be.  And work on getting your children to bed a little earlier, and waking up a little earlier too.  It's so much easier to start now and avoid chaos the morning of the first day of school!
