Wishing all the kiddos a great year and Mamas & Dad comfort!!
๐ BACK-TO-SCHOOL SEASON IS HERE! ๐
The backpacks are coming out, the alarm clocks are being dusted off, and Chesterfield traffic is about to remind us that school is officially back in session. ๐
We put together a few fun reminders for our elementary, middle, and high school families to help make the first week a little smoother.
๐ Elementary School
Parents, you've got this... probably. ๐
โ๏ธ Label EVERYTHING (yes, even the water bottle)
โ๏ธ Pack an extra change of clothes
โ๏ธ Double-check the backpack for supplies
โ๏ธ Practice the morning routine before the first day
โ๏ธ Take the first-day photo... before someone cries (maybe you ๐
)
๐ Middle School
The "I'm too cool for this" stage. ๐
โ๏ธ Make sure they know their schedule
โ๏ธ Charge the Chromebook every night
โ๏ธ Pack deodorant... trust us.
โ๏ธ Set an alarm (and a backup alarm)
โ๏ธ Remind them that homework still countsโeven if they say it doesn't.
๐ High School
Parents become chauffeurs again. ๐
โ๏ธ Check class schedules and parking passes
โ๏ธ Charge phones and laptops
โ๏ธ Leave earlyโfirst-week traffic in Chesterfield is no joke!
โ๏ธ Fill up the gas tank (it disappears fast...)
โ๏ธ Senior parents: Have tissues ready. Freshman parents: Have patience ready.
โค๏ธ To All Families
Whether it's kindergarten or senior year, we hope this school year is filled with new friendships, big accomplishments, and lots of great memories.
Have a safe, successful, and amazing school year! ๐๐
