The first day of school is right around the corner! If you're anything like me you make To-Do Lists to keep yourself organized so I thought I'd share my back to school to-do lists with you as well as school district information for the districts in the area!
The Week Before To-Do List
- Connect school district and school calendars to your calendar. If you don't use a digital calendar write ALL important dates on your paper calendar. My favorite paper calendar is the Family Organizer from More Time Moms
- Get school supplies, including backpacks! I know, I know, it's kind of last minute but that's how I roll.
- Buy new school clothes and shoes
- Wash new clothes!
- Stock up on the kids favorite lunch and snack items. Don't forget about after school snacks!
- Check water bottles for leaks and replace as necessary.
The Night Before To-Do List
- Verify the start time and end time of school.
- Check the bus stop pickup/drop-off location and schedule.
- Be sure to know the drop-off/pickup rules for your school(s)
- Add the school's Main number and Attendance Line number to your phone. Most schools, elementary through high school, will have an attendance line that you can leave a message on if your child is late, needs an early release, or will be out sick.
- Add school apps to your phone.
- Pull out lunch boxes and pre-fill with non refrigerated items. This is a great thing to have the kids help with!
