Hi, I was wondering if anyone had tips for staying organized [for high school] and anything else maybe studying techniques, or anything really. I am very organized already, but I want to have ideas for staying organized throughout the year for all my classes. I have binders, pens, pencils, paper, scientific calculator, pencil case, bag for school [tote bag], locker shelf [extra one], locker mirror. Then on the first day of class they give you a list specifically for each class, so I'll most likely have to buy a notebook, maybe a folder, dividers, or more specific tools for each class. I am going to keep my binders, and any books in my locker, and will keep it organized, then keep smaller books and tools, and other school essentials in my tote bag, and carry 1 binder for the class I am going to, and then before classes just get whatever binder I need from my locker. This shouldn't be a problem because I only have 4 classes a day [some are blocked].
What are some things I can do to help me study for each class, and stay organized in my planner, my bag, my locker, and binder. My classes are:
Chem H, AP Euro, English H, French III, Algebra II/Trig, Health, Study Hall, and an art class.

Thank you so much!

Sounds like you are already on the right track. As we speak, my children are scattering their half-covered books to the wide blue yonder, and worrying about how to do their hair in the morning for the first day back.

One thing I find amazing for staying organised is to use your phone. They all have a calender and an alarm function, and you can use those to act as reminders for stuff you need to bring to school, and when to begin work on projects, and phone numbers of study partners and all that stuff.
