Re: vertical file

  I LOVE the resources available to my students through the use
of the vertical file. When I first went to this high school six
years ago, I thought "What an antiquated resource, we really
should prepare for the 21st century and GET RID of it!" Thank
heavens I waited the first year before making any major
changes. Our students use it ALL the time and find it to be an
invaluable resource. It does takle alot of time and energy to
maintain, so we have parent volunteers work on it and it is
NEVER completely caught up. It is often one of the BEST
resources we have for some of the weird topics our students
come up with! Good luck:-)
