We are building a website that helps everyone in the school find their lost item in my school in the US - the name school is Discovery High School.
FBLA Project is a full-stack web application designed to solve the inefficiency of traditional lost and found methods in schools.
The goal of this project is to digitize the lost and found process, making it easier for students to report and recover lost items through an automated platform.
The current lost and found system at Discovery High School relies on physical bins or disorganized social media posts, making it difficult for students to track down missing belongings.
In many cases, the lack of a centralized digital database causes:
- Low recovery rates for valuable student items.
- Wasted time for both students and school staff searching through physical bins.
- Lack of security and verification when someone claims an item.
This project addresses these issues by providing a centralized and efficient system.
