Back to School help for Parents
Time is running out on summer vacation. Registration at the high school began this week and classes begin on Monday, August 25th. What does this mean? In a single word, Homework! If you are like me, one of my favorite things about summer is not needing to keep kids going on their homework. "Have you finished your homework?" or "Do you need help studying for that test?" are common phrases come September. So to help you with this chore are the following websites that are designed to take the sting from the homework equation. Try them if your kids have reached that phase in school when their homework just leaves you scratching your head, or if you need a quick reference source and the library is closed.


Six free homework-helper sites to come to your rescue:
