Buy school supplies in triplicate.
Kids with attention problems tend to lose things. So have your parents get a set of supplies each for home, backpack, and supply cabinet. Stock up on rulers, tape, pens, and three-ring binders (they constantly break).
Create a portable office.
It's challenging to keep on task if you jump up every two seconds to sharpen your pencil. Fill a tackle box or art-supply bin with school supplies. This way you have everything you need, wherever you study. There'll be fewer homework interruptions; and the box is easily packed up for tomorrow.
Set up a backpack routine.
Before bedtime, sign any notes and pack your backpack. Every Friday or Sunday, go through the backpack to organize the past week's residual papers and prepare for the week ahead.
