Share one of your favorite school memories with your child. Invite them to share theirs from this week.
Your teen may claim they ‘don’t need sleep.’ Translation: they’re about to turn breakfast into a zombie convention. Eight hours isn’t optional—it’s survival!
👀 Sit with your kid and scroll their apps with them. Not snooping—coaching. You might even learn what “rizz” means.
Do a “digital audit” as a family—look at how much screen time sneaks in. Make a small change together.
Stay Safe, Stay Ready. Students will participate in intruder drills this month and are reminded to follow adult instructions without hesitation. Respectful participation builds confidence and calm in the event of a real emergency.
Set aside time today to check your email or parent portal for updates. Important info doesn’t deliver itself!
Sit with your kid and scroll their apps with them. You're not snooping; you're coaching. Who knows... you might end up with more rizz than you thought, prove you still ‘ate,’ and unlock your main-character era. ;)
🍎 Homework hack: Brains work in sprints, not marathons. Try 20 minutes on, 5 minutes off. Even adults would be smarter if we did this.
Ask your child to teach you something new they learned today. Kids love being the expert.
No school today! Use this time to rest or do one fun activity as a family.
We’re practicing safety tips with our Pre-K and elementary students! They are learning what to do in an intruder drill using calm, age-appropriate language. Please talk with your child about the importance of listening and staying quiet.
Write a short note and tuck it in your child's lunchbox/backpack. Encouragement goes further than caffeine.
'Private account’ doesn’t mean ‘safe account.’ Screenshots never expire—and they never disappear. Help your child learn o navigate apps and the World Wide Web safely!
🛑 Reminder: “Private account” doesn’t mean “safe account.” Teach your kid that screenshots never expire.
Take a “Tech Timeout” tonight. Play a board game, shoot hoops, or bake something instead.
Practice the “stranger danger” talk—simple reminders about who to trust and what to do if they feel unsafe.
Homework in one sitting = meltdown. Homework in 20-minute sprints with snack breaks = peace treaty. Parents, we call this strategy ‘saving your sanity.’ Less whining, more winning!
🎒 Backpack truth: Pack it at night. Otherwise, you’re one broken zipper away from a morning meltdown.
Celebrate progress, not perfection. Ask: “What’s one thing you got better at today?”
A new school year is the perfect time to reset screen habits.
