September is National Hunger Month, as well as National Childhood Obesity Month. The non-profit group Feeding America has released numbers for child hunger and food insecurity in each of the 50 states.
Back to school, back to sports
Besides back to school, fall also means sports. (Ask any football fan!) Some of our schools have teams for tackle football, volleyball, and basketball, while other campuses have soccer, cheer, flag football and even a chess team – mental athletics count, too!
Sticker Shock: When your child wants expensive things
We are back to school, settled into classes and the school routine. Students are chatting about their summers, places they went and their new back-to-school gear.
