begins, we thought it would be helpful to introduce a new guide to everything
back-to-school. — And by everything we mean: 1. Our story on the key things
parents can assist with, from goal-setting to getting organized to how to
help kids succeed at school. 2. The recent NY Times cover
story questioning popular forms of parental involvement while supporting
others. 3. This invaluable roundtable
discussion between award-winning local teachers on what works in education.
(Don’t miss their suggestions on how best to get along with your child’s
teacher!) 4. Great tips for school
supplies your kids will love. 5. Our select guides to fall
fashions and footwear for children. And last but most delicious: 6. Inspired suggestions for
school lunches from the mom and home cook behind the sensational blog Weelicious.com.
