Holidays in September
The song goes, “Dancing in September,” but whether you’re dancing or tiptoeing through this month, Setpember offers many things – for many it is like January in that it marks a calendar school year. September means back-to-school and the end of summer. It means a new grade, new friends, new teachers and new beginnings.
September kicks off with Labor Day holiday which is sort of the close tag (to use a techie term) to the Memorial Day Holiday that begins summer. <summer></summer> LOL. September has 30 days and its days and nights are injected with a subtle cooling air that is the gateway into winter.
September is a great month to make a new bff, become the teacher’s pet, clean your room, play hopscotch on the front stoop, visit a museum, watch Dancing with The Stars.
