For parents, back-to-school season is more than just shopping for school supplies and new clothes. It’s about setting your child up for success in the upcoming school year. Many things can impact your child’s academic performance—from the foods they eat to the friends that they make. Did you also know the air they breathe can affect their success in school? Poor air quality may cause health problems like fatigue, headaches, allergic reactions, and other types of irritation that can detract from your kiddo’s ability to focus on learning.

The good news is that improving the quality of the air that your child breathes is not as out of reach as you may think. Molekule air purifiers don’t just collect indoor air pollutants, they destroy them. In fact, Molekule’s Air Mini and Air Mini+ purifiers are even FDA-cleared for medical use to destroy viruses and bacteria. While you can’t control the indoor air quality in your kids’ schools,Molekule air purifiers can help improve the air they breathe at home while they make their way to the head of the class.

Pacific Ridge School, serving grades 6-12 in North County San Diego, is dedicated to helping students develop the intellect, agility, and courage to serve them in young adulthood and beyond.

In our middle school, students learn new ways of thinking and communicating, tackling real-world issues that require collaborative solutions. Given support from caring and experienced educators, middle schoolers can get comfortable with themselves, take risks, develop their voice, and build key academic, social, and emotional skills needed for high school and beyond, all while celebrating who they are and who they are becoming.

Our upper school prepares students not just for the rigors of college, but also to launch purposeful, personally fulfilling lives.  Students spend classroom hours conversing around the Harkness table, collaborating in the science lab, creating in the studio, writing across disciplines, sharing ways to solve math problems, and becoming fluent in world languages. Outside of class, they lead service groups, play sports, engage in community issues, travel to worldwide destinations, and enjoy the close-knit friendships that flourish in an inclusive community.

Students that pass through our doors are empowered to make positive change in the world, and we enable them to do so with creativity and confidence.

Get ready for a one-of-kind adventure on America’s Living Symbol of Freedom. The USS Midway Museum, on San Diego Bay, is one of the world’s most popular and exciting naval ship museums. Dedicated to providing engaging and educational experiences, a visit to Midway not only lets guests enjoy more than 80 years of naval aviation history, but discover what it’s like to be a pilot.

Together, families can experience firsthand the legacy of this amazing aircraft carrier museum through Midway’s extensive collection of restored military aircraft. The museum’s flight simulators and virtual reality experience put visitors in the pilot seat. Guests will also be captivated by the ship’s award-winning audio tour and the world-famous Midway volunteers will bring the flight deck to life with gripping stories of launching and landing naval aircraft as well as tales of high-seas adventure.

The Battle of Midway Theater will transport guests back to 1942 through the eyes and voices of American heroes to relive how the Navy turned the tide to victory in the Pacific during World War II.

The real world: it sure can be real interesting. Explore the natural history of southern California—from past to present—at the San Diego Natural History Museum (The Nat) in Balboa Park.

From dinosaurs and fossils to live animals and rare books, there’s something for everyone. Families will love the unique, interactive exhibitions that span four floors. A giant-screen theater offers daily showings of adventure and nature films, included with paid admission.

The Nat’s newest photography exhibition, California Blooming, focuses on how climate change is affecting wildflowers in our state. Living Lab, also recently opened, brings visitors face-to-face with live animals like lizards, geckos, frogs, beetles, snakes, and even a bee colony. The Backyard play space allows little learners (ages 0-5) to expand their horizons and learn and explore the natural world through play.

Can’t visit in person? The Nat hosts regular “live lessons” for kids via Zoom and has a Nature to You loan program that allows you to check out taxidermy specimens for your home or classroom. Learn more at sdnat.org.
