Missing assignments, ragged books can be avoided by the usage of this invention. The existence of this invention also optimizes the student's workflow between classroom changes. While in elementary school kids have to carry their supply within their arm to another classroom and place them in a shared desk or floor for lack of space; this invention provides them with a portable personal carrier and organizer wherever they go in the school. In the middle and high school environment where a student locker is available, the race to lockers between classes, for material exchange, can be alleviated with the use of this invention and consequently allow more time for student readiness.
