Are your kids ready to return to school? You can help them get ready by getting them back on schedule. A week or so before school starts (that's today - August 7, 2005), set their alarm clocks for their school wake-up time. If your kids take the bus, go over the route with them beforehand. Take a school tour before classes begin, help your kids find their classrooms, the bathroom, and the cafeteria. And help your children prepare the night before school begins -- pack supplies, books, lunch money and anything else they’ll need to take. New Student Orientation - Friday, August 12, 2005 10:00 - 11:30 AM See you in Tigerland! Don't forget your summer reading and mathematics assignments!
