LOS ANGELES (AP) — Michelle Obama is turning online editor for a week.

iVillage, a website for women, said Monday the first lady has agreed to serve as a guest editor, focusing on back-to-school issues.

The site says Mrs. Obama has been working with iVillage staff members to address challenges including healthy eating at school and how to balance busy family schedules.

The "Rev up Your Back-to-School Routine" series with Mrs. Obama begins Aug. 20 on iVillage, part of NBCUniversal.

She'll be featured in a video interview running throughout the week and has created and curated articles and other content. Personal anecdotes and previously unseen family photos will offer a peek at how Mrs. Obama handles the start of the school year.
