School Supplies in AUGUST???

The dog days of summer have just begun,its August!!! So why is Fulton County starting school next week?

No student or teacher should be in front of each other until after Labor Day, what happened??

My protests are in vain, we will see the yellow bus come rolling through neighborhoods Monday morning.
I feel a tinge of sadness when I see the buses, for so many years I saw my babies get on that clunker of a bus. Their sweet little faces pressed on the windows, waving until we are both out of sight. My babies are grown now, but my memories of each school year beginning is so vivid, but it was in September!!!!

I still like to buy school supplies, new pens, pencils, folders, notebook paper, a book bag or two, someone will need them.
New school supplies hold such promise, a clean slate.
School in August, grade "F"
