Don't head back to school without first checking out this awesome back-to-school tech.
It was just June, and now all the sudden, it’s the first week of September. Where the time goes I have no idea, but the seasons change and the years go by, and once again, it’s back to school time. Whether you’re heading back to school yourself—as a teacher or student—partnered with someone going back to finish their studies, or you’ve gone on to have kids of your own who you’re sending off to another year, you’d be remiss not to check out this list of the best back to school technology available for under $100.

You can have all the right highlighters, color-coordinated folders, notebooks and binders and still find yourself feeling like you’ve forgotten something. Rest assured. No one gets it right the first time and we all forget things from time to time. You’re ahead of the curve by even reading this.
So go back to school more prepared than ever with these six amazing tech finds available for under $100.
