Today, Rachel & Steph walk you through how to prepare for going back to school. It’s the beginning of August, which means you and your student are holding onto those last vestiges of summer with all your might–or you may have already started school. It also means that you may be feeling the anxiety that the unknown of a new year brings. Today, they talk about partnership with your child’s teacher and calendaring for success. They also do a deep dive on big academic transitions (the leap that occurs from elementary school to middle school, middle school to high school or high school to college).


Be sure to listen next week to the companion to Back to School (Part 1 & 2), when Rachel & Steph reveal their secrets about school supplies.
