Young adventurers have plenty to look forward to this week, from hands-on building activities and homeschool resources to free math assessments that can help students start the school year with confidence. Families will find opportunities to learn, play and connect before the first school bell rings.
The countdown to a new school year is on, but it doesn't have to be all pencils and paperwork. After all, learning is a lot more fun when it includes LEGOs, new friends and discovering that math can add up to a good time.
