It’s calendar time.
Not to rush you past your remaining summer, but if you want to get a head start on vacation planning, it’s time to look ahead to the upcoming school year.
Our August issue should help get you in the mood. If you haven’t yet, check out the print magazine or the home page of this website. Our back-to-school issue is packed and includes stories about the appropriate amount of homework, what students really carry in their backpacks, what veteran teachers say has changed over the decades, and the best advice for parents of kindergarteners.
