john05+FollowParking Ticket? Donate Supplies Instead!Las Vegas drivers can dodge parking fines by donating school supplies instead of cash—how cool is that? If you got a ticket between May 19 and June 30, just bring in new, packaged supplies (like pencils, books, or even cleaning wipes) worth as much as your ticket, with a receipt. Drop them off or ship them to the city office, and your fine is gone! Supplies go straight to local classrooms. Win-win, but hurry—this ends June 30! #LasVegas #ParkingHack #BackToSchool #Transportation40Share

Benjamin Contreras+FollowWhy Kids Suddenly Dread School at 11Ever wondered when kids start hating school? A new study just dropped and it’s wild: the big drop happens right when they hit Year 7 (that’s age 11, moving to secondary school). Enjoyment, trust, and even feeling safe all nosedive—especially for kids from lower-income families. Girls start feeling less safe than boys, too. Makes you think about how rough that transition really is, and how much more support schools need to give! #SchoolLife #Education #MentalHealth #StudentWellbeing #BackToSchool1414Share
TwilightTide+FollowNervous About Introducing Myself? Here’s How I Nail It!Ugh, introducing myself in class used to make me SWEAT 😅🙈 But I’ve finally figured out how to do it without totally freaking out—and I’m sharing my secrets! • I stand up (even if my knees are shaking!)—it makes me look way more confident • I always SMILE, even if I’m nervous—people are way friendlier when you do ❤️ • I say my name twice: “Hey, I’m Jamie. Jamie Lee.” It actually helps people remember! • I share my pronouns so everyone knows how to address me • I mention why I’m in the class (even if it’s just for a requirement—no shame!) • I toss in a fun fact, like my love for dogs or my obsession with hiking If I’m online, I add a pic and keep my intro short and sweet. And if I’m teaching, I make sure to share a bit about my background and what I love! Trust me, it gets easier every time. YOU GOT THIS!! #BackToSchool #ConfidenceBoost #ClassroomTips #Education20Share
leslieedwards+FollowA Mom’s Guide to School Registration That Won’t Make You CryI still remember the day we moved across town and I realized I had exactly ONE WEEK to get my son registered for his new school. Cue the panic! After a frantic morning hunting down immunization records and birth certificates (why are they never where you think they are?!), we made it through—and you will too! School registration doesn’t have to be the headache many parents fear. Here’s what you need to know: 1️⃣ First, find your school district by calling your city’s Student Assignment Office or using online zone locator tools. 2️⃣ Visit the central registration office OR use their online portal (total game-changer for busy parents). 3️⃣ The document checklist is simple: proof of residence (utility bill, mortgage statement), proof of age (birth certificate or passport), current immunization records, and any previous school transcripts. 4️⃣ Don’t forget emergency contact forms and to ask about special programs your child might need. After submitting everything, your little one should be good to go within 5 business days! #BackToSchool #ParentingTips #SchoolRegistration #NewSchoolNerves #MomLife #EducationMatters #SchoolPrep80Share

Michael Petty+FollowThink Twice Before Posting Back-to-School PicsThose adorable first-day-of-school photos with chalkboards? Turns out, they could be a goldmine for scammers. The BBB warns that sharing details like your kid’s name, school, or grade online can make your family a target for identity theft or hacking. Even your passwords could be at risk if you use personal info! Keep backgrounds generic, double-check privacy settings, and never accept friend requests from strangers. It’s wild how much info we give away without thinking! #Education #ParentingTips #BackToSchool20Share
