History
The history of the back-to-school season is long and complex. In the United States, the first public schools were established in the early 1800s. At that time, schools were only open for a few months out of the year. The reason for this was that children were needed to help with farm work during the summer months.
In the late 19th and early 20th centuries, the number of public schools in the United States began to increase. This led to a longer school year. By the mid-20th century, the typical school year in the United States was nine months long.
Today, the back-to-school season is a time for students, families, and communities to celebrate the start of a new academic year. It is a time of hope, excitement, and anticipation.
