Back to School with Master Lock

Master Lock wants to know, What’s the best piece of advice you can offer to students and fellow parents for surviving the school year?  A few of my best tips:

** Stock up on school supplies now when the prices are the lowest!  I buy everything I need for the whole year during late July and all of August when the sales prices are the best!  Can't beat penny and dollar school supplies!

** Organize now - the school year is always hectic, taking time to plan how your child is going to organize their assignments and paper work will save you a lot of hassle in the fall!

** If your child goes to public school or to a co-op label, label, label all of their belongings.  That way your child can find their things easily.  This also works at home if you have several kiddos who all have red notebooks.

** Everything needs a home.  Keep school supplies, coats, shoes in a specific place so that they can be found when you need them.   (Oh how many times have I rushed frantically throughout the house looking for someone's shoes!)



 
Master Lock® has hired a new specialist on student life to help students safely and securely navigate this school year in style.

Parents and students are invited to submit their own questions for the Master Mind and participate in daily sweepstakes for a chance to win back-to-school must-haves, including popular Master Lock school and campus security products.
