Five Star Student 2019-2020 Academic Year Weekly & Monthly Planner, Small, 5-3/4" x 8-1/2", Advance, White (CAW45010)

I have been using this planner for over ten years and have developed an entire organizational system around it. For 2020-2021 they changed the layout and I HATE it. First, the month view used to have the preceding and following months at the top, so that if you needed to refer to those months you could simply look up (e.g., wanting to know what day of the week a certain date in the next month was). They removed that. Second, they re-organized the weekly layout. M, Tu, and W used to be on the left page and you could write horizontally, then Th, Fri, Sat & Sun were on the right page, with Sat & Sun sharing the bottom horizontal box. Now, as you can see in the picture provided by another user, the weekly layout is vertical - long skinny columns for each day of the week. I don't write that small, and the wire coils often get in the way. I sincerely don't know what to do because otherwise this is the best academic planner out there. I have literally used it every year for over 10 years because I love it so much. I am loathe to try a new planner and deal with: not being able to find my pen, the unwrapped coils spinning and losing pages, a stupid unyielding hard cover, a huge size, etc. I am only writing this now because I hope someone from Mead is reading this and hearing it as feedback.

I LOVE this planner! It is a must-have every year for me; when they stopped selling it at my local stores, I found it online. First off, the planner has a durable plastic cover that is spiral-protected, so it has great durable quality. Most planners are just weekly/monthly, but this one has calendars and a day-by-day spot for specific notes. The calender squares are big enough for writing in and contain extra space for notes. The daily section of the planner is spactious, easy to write in, and even contains check boxes to keep track of what has been done. Additionally, the planner is well organized and the paper is fantastic quality. To top it all off, it contains some useful general-knowledge charts in the back for reference. I would definitely recommend this planner for any student or professional looking to better organize their life.

We buy these every year since they are great. The spine is not a cheap wire, but covered in cloth, you can write appointments/events on a month chart, or on individual day entries that have more space for detail, there is a sleeve inside the back cover that can hold a note or card, a map of the US with time zones, all state capitals, measurement conversion info, a list of holidays for both the US and Canada, and more! The size of the planner is great, too. Not huge and not too small. Fits well in a backpack or laptop case.

This planner is fantasic for educators this is my third year using this planner. It's great for keeping assignments and project deadlines together and there is actually enough space to write everything down. Wasn't happy that it went for August-July to July-June this year, but still a great planner

It's worth what you pay for it. Perfect for a corner in my kitchen and for a chair that does not get a lot of usage.

I’m a really organized and involved person in academic and social affairs; this planner has a simple yet complete design that is perfect for highschool students.It’s not bulky nor heavy, and it has a good space for writing and personalizing.Just be careful with the pages, they are a little bit fragile, but resistant enough for me.The package arrived on time and I did receive the color I ordered.

best planner around. i’m very picky about my planner bindings and how the pages turn. this is my favorite by far :)

This academic planner is the only planner I'll buy. This'll be my third or fourth time buying from this brand and style and I love it just as much every time. The first time I bought from this brand was the smaller version of this same design, however the boxes/lines were too small for my needs. I upgraded to this and haven't looked back!

I love this agenda because it has the small boxes which allows me to make daily lists and check things off as i go. It’s also super durable but still small and compact. Definitely getting the same one again next year!

Perfect little notebook for all your appointments.

Daughter asked for a planner to track her school activities so got her this. Great quality and bonus pages (ie contact info etc..) was a great surprise for her. Definitely would buy again for next years.

Love Mead for agendas. Love this design with the cover over the coil and the pen loop. Soft thick pages.

Very Nice Perfect Size Fast Shipping Can't Complain What I Was Looking For...Liked It So Much I Ordered Another. Great Quality Made Well.
