[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My advice:

Our kids mostly went to public schools in a nice district.  The list and found for their schools was quite a bit like OP described.  No one from school staff paid any attention.

What the PTO decided to do was simply dig thru every 2 months and see what could easily be returned.  Coats and hats often had names and even telephone numbers.  It turned into one of the big connection things between parents and PTO which is pretty non-existent as far as most are concerned in high school.  I helped sort a couple times and my favorite find was a jacket with a kids name and number on it, and $50 in a pocket.

This is GREAT. We label everything and the kids claim to “look” in lost and found but often there’s not sufficient time. And they are terrible at finding things. As a parent I’m not allowed to jump out of carline, into the school to check it out. Also there seem to be several locations and no order.

It peeves me that our stuff is there, labeled, and nobody can be arsed when they drop it by to notice or care. I would certainly volunteer to do this and reconnect. There are lots of people who can’t easily afford these losses.

OP mentioned water bottles with other names. Get those items back to their rightful owners![/quote]
