What can I do about masks going missing at school, has anyone else had this problem?

Question

I send my kid (age 4) to school with a new pack of masks every month, all with his name on it. All the masks vanish and sometimes he'll come home wearing someone else's mask. Before long the teacher will start complaining that he doesn't have extra masks in his bag. It's starting to really tick me off.

Update:

Obviously they are reusable masks and I did specify I've been sending them in packs.

Did anyone ever alert the teacher that this is happening?
Was you child able to give you any explain?  Like Joey always goes into my bag.  Talk to the teacher

How many masks do you provide?  If his mask falls on the floor too many times (and yes, a four-year-old is going to play with it) somebody is going to throw the dirty one away and give him a clean one. Send enough masks to allow for disposal, or send more masks half-way through the month.

someone elses mask?,  lol i shouldn't laugh but that's just hillarious.., anyway to cheer you up most of these masks are designed to be dispensible, in other words they are meant to be thrown away....my guess PE? (physical education)  ie sports lessons?
