Cheers to those of us who made it through to the other side of back to school! I think it gets just a bit more complicated every year. Or maybe I’m becoming instructions-resilient. This go-round felt particularly intense in its “remember to print out and sign the form that we sent out as a PDF link (now expired) at the bottom of an email from May OR ELSE.”

For anyone with young kids, please do not make the mistake of thinking that high school is more low maintenance than elementary school. High school is aptly named. It’s high maintenance.
