For many families, this summer was a significant improvement over last year. While things have not completely returned to normal, many of the activities we enjoy the most returned. Our kids were able to participate in camps, sports clinics and spend time with their friends.
We were able to take vacations and have confidence that restaurants and entertainment venues would be open. Many people spent this summer making up for what we missed last year, squeezing in as many getaways and as much fun as possible.
Time flies when you're having fun, so it probably feels like the break has flown by quickly.
It is hard to believe summer break is almost over. Of course, summer heat will be in full swing for another couple of months, but students will nevertheless be returning to class next month.
At The Crenshaw Academy, classes resume for all grades on August 6th. It is always challenging to transition back to the school year.

While tourism has certainly driven much of the economy in our region, many large companies have moved here in the last few years, bringing with them excellent career opportunities and drawing new people from all over the world to Orange County. Orlando is an international city, receiving a "Gamma +" rating from the Globalization and World Cities Research Network.
