Stay clutter-free through the school year with these desktop and backpack organizers

Keep your desktop and backpack clutter-free with these 13 picks.

Start the new school year with good organization. Two great places to consider keeping clutter-free are in your study space and the backpack. For most, the desk is where all the important assignments get done, and the backpack is what will carry them to the class. So make sure you are well organized. 

For backpack organization, consider functional compartments like zippered pouches and other accessories to divide your items into compartments.  At home, clear out a space designated for studying and make sure it is free of clutter with desktop organizers that give you options for stowing away files, pencils and more. 

Here are 13 picks that will help you clear the clutter throughout the school year:
