What's the Worst Part About Back to School in Londonderry?

Londonderry residents share their reasons why they wish summer wouldn't end.

We've reached that part of the summer when parents switch from being happy to have the kids home to enjoy the vacation together to being anxious to get them out of the house.

The readers on the Londonderry Patch Facebook page told us what they dread most about going back to school. Here's what they had to say:

  • Kevin Yore: Getting stuck behind buses!
  • Stephen Chen: Sleep in my car behind a school bus!
  • Brooke Nadeau: Having to wake up early and walk them to the bus stop because it will no longer stop at the end of my driveway!
  • Laurie Lola-Laconto: I am new to Londonderry so this is my first experience with the schools. I would say the school supply list, LOL. Not used to having that!
  • Laurie Mounce: It's before Labor Day and they get out so late in July.
  • Barbara Hill: As a grandmother, missing them day to day. I have only heard wonderful things about the Londonderry school system!
  • Susan Jasper Thomson: I miss them!
  • Ann Chiampa: Getting stuck behind school buses.
  • Laurie Barsalou Peters: Homework!
