It used to be that home and school didn’t really mix, apart from when kids had to do homework – the clue is in the name with that. However, things have changed over the years, and it’s now clear that if you want your children to do well in their education, you can’t just leave…
Moms and dads want to know they nailed it when it comes to back–to–school shopping. In fact – most think they do.

My husband and I have been struggling with deciding which high school my daughter would go to. After much consideration we decided we wanted her to go to a school that would offer her the most opportunities for college scholarships. The best choice for my daughter happens to be our Alma Mater, North Augusta High…
School is back in session. This is my kids 3rd day of school and they are still loving it. Even my 8th grader. One of the most essential items kids need for school is a backpack. Finding a sturdy and quality backpack is a must have each school year. Kids are so hard on backpacks…
School is back in session! Do you do hot lunch or send your kids to school with a lunch? We typically always send our kids to school with a lunch. They always like to pick out a few items to put in their lunch. One way that I always like to try and save on…
