  Case: Dirty Backpack
Today I was helping a struggling student find a pencil inside her backpack and uncovered a 4 month old opened yogurt. This makes me feel like her parents do not regularly check on her school work or cleanliness.
How should I approach this situation?
Solution: (Rates are posted for this solution!)
Something that you could to would be to send a letter or an email home talking about what you found in her backpack. I would just let them know that maybe they should check her backpack everyday after school because you send important things home

Comments: I think that by sending an email letting the parents know you were in their child's backpack could be misinterpreted as a breach of privacy or as an insult to their cleanliness at home.

Comments: While a good solution, this could be approached in a more considerate fashion. It also does not provide a solid solution for possible future occurrences.
