It is Back to School Time!

Check out this great post by Dr. Karla Arriaran!

From Dr. Karla:

"Getting back to a routine involves adjusting to new schedules- drop-off times, pick-up times, early release days, extracurricular activities, carpools and the list goes on and on.

As parents, we often get lost in the details of getting the schedule ‘back on track’.

As an educator and a working mom myself, I know how hectic balancing all of the schedules can be. That being said, I encourage you to take a moment to check in with your children to find out how they are feeling.

School has been anything but traditional for the past few years. It is important that our kids know that their feelings, especially about school, are valid.

Find out what they are looking forward to this school year? What are they dreading? What are their goals? What classes are they really excited about? Ensure they know you care.

Here’s to a great school year–

Dr. Karla"
