This is stuff that needs to be thought about before the end of summer.
Back to school shopping - give them ownership of the materials.
Talk about systems before the school year starts: places for homework, spelling lists, master calendar at home. Support lined up. Be proactive, not reactive.
Don't overbook after school activities. Allow time for kids to get into their routines
File system for each school year.
Make sure you conference with teacher in the beginning to communicate that your kid gets what they need: extended time, modifications, etc...
