Summary/Abstract: The problem of reconstruction of the damaged funds of the registry materials in the schools, and not only in the schools, has been imposed as an important obligation of the owners of the archival and registry materials. The task of the Archives is to offer the necessary expert help in that field, considering that the archival practice is not very familiar with these problems. The reconstruction of the damaged funds should be dealt with by the very owners ­ registry offices. The starting point is in detailed study of the fund's history, and then in the complete classification of the existing registry material, in order to approximately become familiar with the amounts of the destroyed documentation. Only after that the search after the documentation is approached; that documentation was sent through the provenance to the competent establishments of the system: Pedagogical Institute, Ministry of Education, Municipality, Archives etc. The reconstruction should be dealt with the help of the leftover registry materials. Those materials should be valorised as the archival material, or they should be used for shaping (reconstruction) of the documents which possess the character of the archival materials. Therefore, we cannot deal with the damaged funds as if nothing has ever happened. In order not to have the cases of destruction of registry material which could have significance of the destroyed archival material, in the system of regular extraction, both standard written documents and the valorisation of the materials and others for the period of destruction should be established in a completely different manner.
