Thank you for helping your students stay neat and organized with their schoolwork.
Lately, we are having a problem with, “My mom threw it away.” To
solve this issue, please do not clean out your student’s folders, binder,
or backpack without them present. They know what they need to keep and wait
can be thrown away. If they are unsure, have them bring the paper to school
and ask one of the teachers.
