We wrap up our back-to-school series with practical advice for high school and college supplies, focusing on the transition between these educational stages and what students actually need versus what retailers want you to buy.

• High school students need quality binders and organizational tools to manage increased coursework
• Laptops and tablets become essential tools for high school students using online learning platforms
• Invest in a good printer with scanning capabilities for assignments and digital submissions
• Choose durable, multi-purpose backpacks for high schoolers, especially those involved in sports
• For college, remember "LESS IS MORE" – focus on necessities before decorative items
• Consider end-of-year storage issues when purchasing college supplies
• Pre-clean dorm rooms thoroughly before move-in and encourage ongoing cleanliness
• Use Amazon wishlists or gift cards to help supplement college supply needs
• Emotional preparation for parents is just as important as practical preparation for students
