Excellence for all – It all starts with a pencil case

Getting the kids ready for the first day

This back to school season can be quite stressful for parents as well. We’ve put together some tips (and maybe reminders) below to help you get your kids ready for their first day back.

Tip #1: Bring your child to the doctor for his/her regular check-up visit. It’s important to discuss healthy routines and hygiene now more than ever! Discuss washing their hands often and use hand sanitizer regularly.

Tip #2: Agree on a designated homework station, a set time and place every day for your child to finish their homework.

Tip #3: Ask your child if they are needing anything different for this school year. All your son or daughter will probably remember is their shoes and raincoat if it rains. We’ve compiled a check-list of back to school essentials. You can print this checklist here: YNOT-BACK TO SCHOOL CHECKLIST

Tip #4: Pick outfits the night before and wake up early to ensure your family has enough time to get dressed, have breakfast, and commute to school.

Tip #5: Plan your meals ahead of time – take advantage of specials and coupons available to help alleviate the stress of getting dinner prepared for your family after a long day. Ynot Italian has Family Specials that will easily feed your family. We also deliver! So, if you’re in a time crunch, just call in and we will get dinner to you in no time!

Tip #6: Planning an event? Why not order Ynot Italian? We cater for school functions and parties.

As proud Partners in Education, we want excellence for all. Ynot Italian supports local schools and missions that are dedicated to providing opportunities for children to achieve their education and career goals. Fostering leadership, empowering students, and immersing students in literature and reading are all pieces of the vision that Ynot Italian has for the Hampton Roads community.

Wishing all Hampton Roads students the very best as they return to their schools this month. Happy Back to School!
