Back to some school or another

We're a 3 school family, including the one where I work, and so I have the privilege this week of doing 3 so-called back-to-school nights in 4 days. I've never been quite sure to whom the "back-to-school" part is referring, the students or the parents, but I guess that's not important.

This is an exhausting experience by any measure, but it will put me in the unique position of comparing the highs and lows of parent communication at three of the area's finest independent schools. I'll check back in later.
