Children are learning to deal with a new set of expectations and are adjusting to an unfamiliar schedule. Parents are also adjusting to different demands on their schedule and are hoping for a successful year for their children. The following are some suggestions that may help to make the first days of school a bright new beginning for parents and children. Before School Begins: 1) Be certain that your child is registered at school. Do not wait un til the first day of school school offices are often very busy during the first few days. Be certain you have all the documents you will need proof of birth, immunization records and name and address of previous schools. The most important infor mation any school needs is an emer gency contact name, address, and phone number in case you cannot be reached. 2) Help your child learn skills that will make him more independent at school. For a small child, help him her learn how to put on their jackets. Also, work with them to learn their name, address and phone number. Older children need to learn how to keep trackof their assignments. They need to learn how to budget their time and dress appropriately. Also, you should take the time to label their belongings with their name (coats, sweaters, backpacks, lunch boxes, hats, etc.) 3) Plan a "dress rehearsal" visit to the school to locate classrooms, restrooms, cafeteria, library, office, and play areas. Reassure children about schedules and expectations. If your school offers a parentchild ori entation, try to attend. Trace bus routes or foot trails. Tell children where you will be and what you will be doing while they are at schooL Be positive about their abilities to cope Help identify women's issues Warm Springs women arc en couraged to attend a "Focus Mcc ling" Tuesday, August 25 at the Power Enterprise Conference Room from 8:30 to 11:30 a.m. Attendees will develop a plan forcommunity women issues.

If your children are going to daycare, try to arrange for them to visit ahead of time, so that they are mastering one new situation at a time. 4) Talk to your child about his or , her skills, emphasizing their strengths. What successes did they have last year? What new interests are they likely to be able to explore this year? On The First Day: 1) Get up early enough to allow plenty of time for easy conversation. Listen in the morning to fears your children may express, and help reas sure them about their abilities to cope with new responsibilities and new friends. 2) Plan for a good breakfast, and arrange for a nourishing lunch.

If he or she is buy ing lunch, you may want to check with the school cafeteria to determine cost and menus so that there are no surprises that first day. 3) Let your child be as indepen dent as you can about getting to school and meeting the new teacher.
