Whether you’re beyond ready to send your kids back to the classroom, or tearing up (just a little) at the thought of your little one’s first day… there’s going to be plenty of pictures. Of course, we want to show off our kids’ cute outfits on social media, which means we need a back-to-school caption that shines just as bright as our students. (After you click post, don’t forget to add your first day photos to your Monthbooks)! These funny, sentimental and quotable lines are the best back to school captions for parents in 2022.

Funny Captions

Saved by the bell

Namastay in bed

School daze

New school year, same kids

Back to school? How about going back to the pool?

It’s the most wonderful time of the year

Now I need to remember what day of the week it is

First formula of the year: y = (I get older) + (summers get shorter)

Love to see them go, hate to watch them leave

September is like the Monday of months

Maybe this is also my time to figure out what I want to be when I grow up

Most likely to be caught napping in class

There are five seasons: winter, spring, summer, fall, and school-supplies.

Sentimental Captions

How many days until summer? It’s hard to watch them grow so quickly, but I love spending as much time with them as possible. (It’s true!)

Oh, the places you’ll go.

The secret to getting ahead is getting started.

Didn’t think I was going to cry.

My mom told me to cherish these moments... and now I understand why.
