Youth Education: Back to School
8/4/2025 1:00:00 PM

The start of school brings more than just new supplies, it’s a chance to set the tone for the year ahead. That’s why we created our “This Year, I Will…” Bookmark Set, designed to help kids build the future-ready skills they need to succeed in school and life.
3 Tips for Building Future-Ready Habits at Home:
- Choose a Trait Together. Each bookmark highlights a key skill—teamwork, problem-solving, creativity, communication, responsibility, or financial confidence. Talk with your child about which one fits their goals this year.
- Keep It Visible. Place their chosen bookmark in a planner, on the fridge, or in a book. It’s a daily visual reminder of the kind of person they’re working to become.
- Celebrate Progress, Not Perfection. When your child shows growth—like taking initiative or managing money—call it out. These small wins build lifelong confidence.
