    Back-to-School Means Getting Organized: The UPS Store Offers 5 Tips to Families
     

     Back-to-school season is here, which means added shopping trips and the flurry of activities with a new school year starting. As parents and teachers are busy checking off their back-to-school list, The UPS Store offers five ideas to help stay organized and get prepared for the new school year:
     
    1. Print a family calendar: Print a large calendar to easily keep track of your kids’ school and extracurricular events, along with your own to-dos. Post it somewhere where the entire family can see it.
    2. Print name labels: Labels are a perfect solution for kids who frequently lose their notebooks, water bottles, and even electronics. Instead of buying replacements, print customized name labels at The UPS Store.
    3. Print classroom materials: For the hardworking teachers, greet your students with welcome banners, fun printed desk assignment signs, and handouts for ice breaking.
    4. Scan important school documents: Digital copies reduce the stress of going through a pile of papers and missing out on important information.
    5. Prepare now for the next school break – get your passport photos: The holidays are not so far away. Be ready to travel internationally with a new passport photo taken at The UPS Store.
     
    “Back-to-school season can be overwhelming, and The UPS Store is here to be a convenient, one-stop shop for all your needs,” said The UPS Store Manager Ben Thackston. “Our printing, designing, packing, and mailbox services are always in high demand this time of year.”
