I use a monogram decal on the front of my planner each year. This year I used the cutest monogrammed anchor I found on Etsy!
I really like to take full advantage of my planner, so I use every bit of it that I can. On the page with the pocket, I type up and tape down my class list and I cut out the bell rotation schedule from the back of one of the free planners our school gives us (which are completely awful) and keep it in the pocket. I keep random notes, standardized test tickets, info from college meetings, and other odds and ends in that front pocket as well.
On the month calendar pages, I write any long term projects, trips I'm taking, exam dates, or any other important dates so I can see them all at once and plan out my work accordingly.
Weekly, I write out the subjects that I have for each day and the corresponding work due for that class. I make boxes next to each day so I can check off the boxes as I complete things, because really who doesn't like checking things off a list? Also, to make it easier to find the page I'm on, I have a ruler/page marker that snaps into the spiral of the agenda.
The Lilly agendas for next year are in the cutest patterns! I've already pre-ordered my jumbo planner in Tusk In the Sun ($34) and a white monogrammed decal off of Etsy for the cover ($4)
What's your favorite pattern for this year's agendas?
