the following was posted in the lost and found section of my neighborhood website:
‘Help me neighbors! I found young Marcus Wilson’s geometry notebook on the way to work around Revena. Anyone know him or his family? I hope his homework isn’t due today!’

How sweet that someone would go to such trouble to try to reunite Marcus Wilson with his homework! I hope the story had a happy ending (or at least didn’t end in detention).
