We went to Open House night last night.  It is great to go to so you can meet your childs teacher, get bus schedules, car rider information, PTO information, after and before school program(if available)information.  Also, to get a jump on all that paperwork. 

The Night Before.......

1.  Gathered back pack and school supplies and labeled
2.  I labeled & prepacked certain things so I only had to make the sandwich in the a.m.

3.  School Outfit- I set out a few options & let her choose what she liked.

4.  Shoes, hair accessories- Put with everything else so we don't have to search.
5.  Filled out paper work and got her school folder ready.....just incase lunch money...etc.
