Getting ready for school

If you are like me and my children by the time the last week of June roles around we are already to go back to school. ( In thoughts only).
But now is the best time to start to prepare. Here are some wonderful ideas of how to make going back less stressful for you and your kids:
1. Make sure work area for studying is organized and in good working order.

2. If you haven't already done this; start a Back to School Box, this is a box that has all the extra paper, pens and other school supplies you have. Make an inventory of what you have and what you know you are going to need.

3. Review items on your children's IEP or 504 plan and make sure you agree with everything on the contract if you do great you are that much more ahead, If not now is a perfect time to make notes on changes that are needed. 

4. For all college students: Now is a great time to review your grades contact your colleges financial aid department. Who knows you may be able to get a scholarship.

This is a wonderful starting list
