This Back to School season appears to be more challenging than ever, as educational institutes maneuver to ensure student safety amidst the ongoing pandemic.

Preparing for Back to School

Preparations are in full swing throughout the city. Administrators, teachers, and support staff have been putting in an inordinate amount of effort to create a safe and healthy learning environment while also looking at innovative ways to meet students’ scholastic needs.

Local Initiatives

Several local initiatives have been launched to assist families with school preparations. Among them is “Stuff the Bus,” an annual campaign that aims to collect school supplies for students in need. Community members are invited to participate and donate essentials such as pens, notebooks, backpacks, and more.

Navigating the New Normal

The looming question is, how safe are our schools? As the country wrestles with health concerns, each school’s response plays a crucial role in the community. Thorough cleaning procedures, vaccination drives for eligible students, mask mandates, and social distancing have become the new normal in many schools.

The viral politics surrounding school safety protocols have been making waves across the nation. It has stirred up a national debate with widespread repercussions on the educational system. Schools are indeed caught in the crosshairs of politics and pandemic.

Addressing the Digital Divide

A Focus on Black History Month

Another highlight of this academic year is an enhanced focus on Black History Month. With many institutions acknowledging that there is a need to expand the narrative and include more comprehensive coverage of Black History, the new curriculum is set to be hugely illuminating and inspirational.

Consumer Recalls & Business Trends

This Back to School season also brings alerts for consumers particularly with several recent recalls on everyday essentials. From cribs to car seats, parents are advised to stay informed about the latest recalls to protect their family’s safety.

On the business front, it’s a vibrant scene in the city with several local businesses hoping to rebound after the challenges of the past year. From small boutique stores to well-established names in retail, there’s a wave of optimism that is expected to surge this Autumn.
