Getting Ready or Taking It Easy?

The new school year means new schedules, supplies and a certain amount of preparation.

While employees are working to get buildings, curricula and everything else ready for the new school year, some parents and their children are busy, too.

Some are expressing concerns about bus routes, summer reading lists and teacher assignments. Others are plotting strategies around whether to buy listed supplies or wait to find out whether they're really needed.

What are you doing to get ready for the new school year? Or are you relaxed, putting off shopping or checking lists, until the long Labor Day weekend is over?
