MACY'S 6TH ANNUAL SPELLING BEE - Kids ages 8 through 11 can join Macy's and Reading Is Fundamental this back-to-school season to show how well they can S-P-E-L-L! The annual Spelling Bees will take place in 29 cities beginning Aug. 13 with a grand finale in Macy's Herald Square in NYC on Sept. 24. Each regional Spelling Bee champ will take home great prizes including a year of online learning from Kaplan Smart Track and a $150 online gift card from Scholastic.

DOSOMETHING.ORG - For the first time, Macy's is partnering with DoSomething.org, one of the nation's largest organizations that helps young people rock causes they care about by raising awareness, inspiring, empowering and celebrating a generation of doers who recognize the need to do something, believe in their ability to get it done and take action.

Always "ahead of the curve," Macy's has created exciting youth-centric partnerships that focus on what's interesting to the teen and tween in your life.

WENDY- This back-to-school season, Macy's has partnered with Alloy Entertainment (the executive producers of Pretty Little Liars and The Vampire Diaries) to showcase the retailer's fashion offerings in the original web series, Wendy. A modern reimagining of a timeless story, Wendy is a romance about a girl who must choose between the boy she loves and the boy of her dreams.

This fall, kids are heading back-to-school in style with the latest fashions at an affordable price from Macy's. With must-have items for girls and boys, Macy's is your one-stop shopping destination for everything from denim to dresses to graphic tees.

This season, girls get schooled in prep academy chic, with varsity jackets and collegiate sweatshirts taking center stage. Add some fun to your buttoned-up look with folk and Fair Isle accent trim and border detail in cropped jersey tees, woven shirting, lightweight sweaters and flirty skirts. As true fall dressing takes form, novelty tailored jackets and equestrian-print wovens look best when worn with flared denim. Not to forget the boys, varsity and pep squad-inspired tees paired with washed denim and topped with striped collegiate tops create the perfect back-to-school outfit. Bold graphic tees with Atari, Star Wars and other vintage screens look fresh this school year when worn with dark and rigid slim denim and topped with vibrantly colored plaid polos.
