How do I get a forgotten personal item to my student if they have left it at home?

If you need to drop an item off for your student, drop it off on the cart outside the front office door with a completed slip of paper.  We periodically go outside to bring in the items and leave them in an area for students to collect during transitions.  Students are not allowed to check their phones during the day. Please don't text/call them to notify them that the item is at the school.  They would be breaking a school rule.
