Besides taking care of lost and found articles, it also serves as a checkroom. A safe is provided in which children may keep Valuable articles and sums of money during the day. Book locker keys are given out at this department, and lockers assigned for books and musical instruments. Student workers are selected, one for each period of the day, two before and after school, and three students at each home-room period.
