For those in school, August can signal a big change. After being off for the summer months, school is back in session. A new routine starts up. Suddenly, schedules may take a sharp turn.
This change can require some adjustment. Students could take some time to settle in, as could those whose schedules are affected as well (like parents, caretakers, etc.). How can we embrace this new agenda?
Change and adjustment can seem intimidating, but they can also represent newness and opportunity. It is okay to feel a little bit sad that summer is coming to an end. Change can be hard. But as we process, it might help to take a look on the bright side. New school years, new seasons and new adventures await!
