Get Students Ready for School Year.

It's that time of year again—as summer comes to an end, it's back to the grind for students. Time to tick off that back-to-school checklist:

• Vaccinations and physical exams: Ensure your children are up to date. Check requirements by school level: dshs.texas.gov
• School supplies: Stock up during the tax-free weekend for savings.
• Transportation planning: Figure out the morning drop-off and afternoon pickup routine.
