Organizational Tips
To keep you organized there are many things that are great to purchase. We have included some supplies the most successful students here use!
As former 6th graders, we encourage students to buy locker shelves. You can buy locker shelves at Staples, Target, Amazon and many other office supply stores. You can also purchase locker organizers at registration, while supplies last! Having a locker organizer keeps you organized, and also decreases the time you take at your locker, making it much easier to be on time for class.

Another thing that helps keep 6th graders organized is some type of bag to carry your stuff in. I personally recommend drawstring bags, which are both easy to fit in your locker and allowed in classrooms.
You do not have to carry your stuff in a bag, but if you do choose to, DO NOT get the suitcase backpacks with the wheels on the bottom. They are not allowed in classrooms because they are big and they can be a fire hazard, and they do not fit in your locker!

Finally, I would like to tell you some of the benefits of carrying around a student planner. You can buy a planner at registration. You can also buy planners during the year. The planners are used to organize your homework assignments, class schedules, school events and hall passes.
If getting a Berkshire Planner is not for you, you can buy some type of calender/planner anywhere else, but I recommend buying them at Berkshire, because the school designs them and are personalized to help specifically Berkshire students.
