Back to School: Shoutout to all the local students

Ahh, to be a kid again. Looking forward to the smell of freshly sharpened #2 pencils, seeing all of your friends again after summer, packing a lunchbox & planning an outfit for the first day of class. Memories of being a student!

Some of us never want to grown up! Not necessarily a bad thing if it means being young at heart.  I remember the days of summer gone by & going back to school like it was yesterday (it wasn't that long ago people, ok!) I would even take the test anxiety again if it meant being a carefree kid.

Shoutout to all the returning students of the cap region whether you're from out of state attending one of the Capital Region's many colleges or a high school student preparing to enter your freshman or senior year. Shoutout to all of you, even if its your first day of kindergarten.

Just know a bright future awaits you! Check out some motivational quotes from famous people who have succeeded in life.
