Preparing for a New School Year in the Age of COVID

These last six months have been unusual, to say the least. COVID-19 severely altered our daily lives, and while it is impossible to determine who was impacted the most, many people would agree that children experienced a uniquely difficult time.

There are several steps you can take to help ensure that your children are successful this school year.
