back to school

The return to school can, unfortunately, also mean a return to bullying for countless vulnerable students across the state.

As New Jersey school kids head back to class, many of them will be carrying cell phones, tablets and other electronic devices - with the full blessing of education officials.

You can just feel it. The sun is setting earlier, back-to-school specials are everywhere, and the calendar is nearly ready to be flipped into the month of September. Summer, as most families know it, is essentially over.

With the start of the school year right around the corner, parents should be aware of an important, but often overlooked safety issue for their children.

Are you having fun with the back-to-school supply lists?

Deciding which teacher your child belongs with in the new school year is an in-depth process, but that doesn't mean your child will like the teacher they receive.

Most kids in New Jersey are headed back to school before the unofficial end of summer.

It is a yearly issue for beach patrols up and down the shore as students head back to college.

With the opening of school fast approaching, many New Jersey kids will be moving from lower grades to higher ones, and in some cases to a different school. The change can be stressful for children and their parents.

When the kids head back to school in September, they'll be sharing desks, supplies, books, perhaps toys and, in turn, plenty of germs.
