IF YOU’RE BEING HONEST…

You’re tired of the constant reminding.
The alarms, the chore charts, the color-coded calendars...you’ve tried them all.

You’ve talked it out. Let it go. Tried again. And still, nothing sticks.

Maybe you’ve been Googling “executive functioning” for months.

Or maybe you’ve just been watching your kid fall apart over simple things, wondering why nothing seems to help.

Either way, the outcome’s the same.

Your kid is bright–but disorganized.
Sweet—but scattered.
Trying—but constantly overwhelmed.

And if you’re being really honest? So are you.

You don’t need another printable.
You don’t need a new reminder app.
You need a system that works in real life.

That’s where the Middle School Master Plan™ comes in.

 

So What’s Actually Inside This Thing?

 Spoiler: it’s way more than a calendar. 


Customizable Cover + acrylic Markers  

Each planner features a bold, doodle-style cover students can customize to match their vibe. First 100 orders include a free set of acrylic markers!


Resource Hub Access via QR Code 

Instant access to how-to videos, printable EF tools, and setup tips—designed for both students and parents who want extra support.


Monthly Pages That Build Self-Awareness

With check-ins, creative prompts, and “Oh Snap!” reminders, students can reset, reflect, and speak up before stress builds.


Weekly EF Skill Practice Built-In

Middle schooler-approved activities that build executive functioning skills—without lectures, random worksheets, or added stress.


Block & Daily Schedule Friendly

Works with A/B days, red/blue schedules, or traditional weeklies—because middle school isn’t one-size-fits-all. 


“Pack It / Prep It” Daily Reminders

Built-in space to help students prep for the specific day type ahead—PE shoes, after-school snacks, tech, and anything else they’ll need to remember.

This planner is for you if...

  • Your child is in 5th–8th grade and already juggling more than ever
  • They’ve tried planners before—but gave up after a week (or less)
  • They struggle with organization, time management, forgetfulness, or regulating big emotions
  • They’re doing okay—but you’ve seen how quickly that can change without the right support
  • You’re tired of being the reminder, the packer, the micromanager
  • Your kid is bright—but they need real tools, not just high expectations
  • You want to build executive functioning in a way that actually sticks—without lecturing or nagging
  • You’re not aiming for perfection. You’re aiming for steady progress, real confidence, and a calmer way forward
