How many of you are ready for school to start again?

Question

I have not recieved a list from my sons school on what I need to buy him for the first grade????? I also do not really know exactly what day it does start although I do have a calendar I could look at from his school from last year. I am going to have 3 of my babies in school. 2 of them will just be in preschool though. Wow I am going to have lots of alone time. Its going to be weird when they are all gone.

Answer 1

I'm ready to start...it's my senior year of high school. I'm ready for it to happen...although I still have to do my blasted summer reading :D I start on the 25th and I'm ready. I just got the last of my uniform stuff delivered today and I just bought my suit/tie for my formal senior pics.

For your son entering 1st grade, he'll jhust need the basics--a small box of crayons or markers, pencils, a few notebooks, some folders, and some looseleaf paper. He should be good...that's what I use each day in my classes (well, except for the crayons, but we don't color in high school :).

Answer 2

Ugh...I'm totally not ready for school.

I have so much 2 do.

I have 2 dye my hair, get nails done, make sure i don't break out, tan, etc.

Its just so much stuff 2 do before school.

But I have already got my school supplies, it wasn't sent 2 me tho, and its still not here, usually lists of all the schools in the area and grades are at walmart kinda early.

And I make sure i buy them as early as i can(as soon as walmart has the list)

And plus, I feel this summer was shortened.I'm not happy about starting school.*sigh*.

Answer 3

schools already started it sucks!

Answer 4

I'm ready. We live in a rural area so I have been the sheer source of entertainment for my 8 year old. We are both ready!! Check the schools website, that's where I get her school supply list and all other dates. and do it quick, because it's probably time to start the registration  

Answer 5

School starts on Mon the 18th and I am SO ready! If the school didn't send you a letter of school supplies, maybe the school will send home the list on the first day, or they don't need anything.

Answer 6

I am so ready for school to start. It has been a long summer. the kids are starting to drive me crazy. If not for prozac I would have my stress eye tic going majorly by now.

I could almost tell you the HOURS til the first day of school...it starts wednesday!!!

My 3rd grader got a list in her report card this summer as to what supplies she needed for school. My 7th grader got his list about 4 days ago at schedule pick -up. I am printing off a copy of the 8th grade list so I can get the stuff if I see it on sale. For the past 2-3 years I have stocked up on things before school starts. I have TONS of pencils I bought for like 15 cents a pack, same for erasers. I got single subject spiral notebooks for 5cents, so I bought 15. I found notebook paper for 25 cents, so I bought 8 of them. I found composition books for 50 cents (instead of like 2.50 each) so I think I have like 6-8 of them in my stash. I bought packs of ballpoint pens for like 99 cents, so I bought like 6 packs.

I am hoping that my almost 3 year old will qualify for special ed preschool this fall. he has a speech delay and will still need help after he turns 3. If he qualifies, I will be alone for a few hours a day after the first week in november. I am not sure what I will do, but I will figure it out.

Answer 7

We are almost ready here.. just waiting for my eldest son's uniforms to come in (the store was out of his size).  We have all the supplies bought and ready, all the paper work from the teachers filled out and ready to go.  Only 9 more days, but who's counting? lol.

Answer 8

I'm so exited because my little girl (4yrs) will finally go to preschool and my eldest girl (12 yrs) will go to 7th grade.

Answer 9

i am ready and not ready at the same time....

i am excited because it will be my 1st year of high school (even though i am going into 8th, our school is weird with grades.. but anyway)

and i am excited to see my friends.

but summer was so short!!!!

and i am soooooo nervous about the 1st day!

i think once i go to the open house i will feel alot better about the 1st day.

Answer 10

Definately not me. I mean who wants 2 sit in a desk all day nd listen 2 boring teachers talk; especially when u already know the material.

Answer 11

Well not me. I am scared of the first day.

Answer 12

Not me. i hate school.  

Answer 13

Aww, you're babies are growing up :)

Your son should receive a list sometime on the 1st week of school, if you haven't gotten one yet. Consider calling the school for a supply list, and the starting date of school.

Answer 14

Not me...

Answer 15

I already finished school, back in 2005. My cousins aren't ready to go back to school, they hate it.

Answer 16

School actually started for me on the 12th. I was ready.
