Units are broken down and spread across the months.
Old assignments are renovated,
and new ideas are in the process of being developed.
Classrooms will soon be decorated
and supplies will be restocked.
Students and their parents make preparations at home.
Backpacks, notebooks, pens and pencils,
are on many shopping lists,
and the latest ed-tech gadgets as well.
a special section is reserved for school work,
and to study, to read, to write.
Administrators visualize the school year as a whole
and fill the weeks with training, seminars,
professional development, and the like.
New implementations are carefully reviewed.
Roadmaps are established, redesigned, or upgraded.
It is time to go back to school,
and begin the 2015-16 school year.
