Mail

Is mail clutter piling on your desk? Here is a great article From Good Housekeeping for the Home that you can apply to your work environment: 9 Real-Life Ways to Banish Paper Clutter

Recycle or trash right in the mail room. Have 3 mail areas: Now, Later and File.

Is picking up and sorting the mail something you can delegate to someone else? Here's sorting instructions I created so that a volunteer or assistant could sort the mail:

Catalogs: Put in Mrs. G’s box to review Magazine Renewals: Throw away, all renewals are handled through Magazine Order in May. 2 bulletins: one on student bulletin board, one on library clipboard Detention Lists: File daily on Detention clipboard for future reference. Destroy monthly. Purchase orders: log and file in Purchase Order Binder. Mobility Report: Process same day, forward to Jeanie Sides in Records Attendance sheets: kept at Media Technician’s station. Send out by period. Mrs. G signs on Fridays. Attendance reports: In Mrs. Gruenthal's Gradebook Magazines: Place in magazine box Assigned to TA’s for processing and distribution Board Minutes: post downstairs.
